This is a concise guide to providing chronic are services to seniors. Not a lot of science, rather full of pragmatic tools.

Important information on how to get patients to follow adequate advice and change unhealthily behavior. Understanding and subsequent compliance is more difficult to realize than diagnostic testing. Clear communication between provider and patient is necessary to determine what the problem IS and how to BEST resolve it.
