These three books are written specifically for a family who has made a long-term care placement, and is now walking the difficult road to adjustment. Doug believes that family members have a special place, and special "gifts," to offer their loved one after the move to a facility, but guilt and lack of communication often block their best efforts. "Your Gift of Participation outlines how family members can work, in concert with the care facility staff, to make the transition and the living situation more stable and content for the loved one. Doug describes how to become a team of care with the professionals.
