GREAT book for my new job...I've been an NP to college students and in urgent care, but this is the first time I've been a nurse practitioner for a geriatric house call practice and this book is perfect. I am really enjoying the format, the timely and research backed treatment protocols and the compassionate, well written style for advising anyone in the business of taking care of old folks! (which I am rapidly become one of!)This is a must-read for all medical people but is especially suited to a Geriatric NP or Family Practice NP who see elderly patients regularly.

well organized and outlined

Very well organized. Excellent textbook.

I enjoy reading this book. The subjects are straight to the point and highlights the main points at the end of the chapters.
