Produktbeschreibung
Four factors are rapidly converging into a ""silver tsunami"" that will soon challenge every aspect of American society: 1) the increasing number of people living with dementias; 2) the mounting number of people providing dementia care, whether they want to or not; 3) the spiraling healthcare costs of dementia care; and 4) the lack of geriatricians to provide medical care and oversight.
