| Summary |
"Gerontological Supervision: A Social Work Perspective in Case Management and Direct Care, Second Edition, is a practical, "how-to" guide for the supervision of case managers, personal care providers, and interns working in community services and long-term care of ill or disabled older persons. This new, updated edition of the classic text expands its focus by offering direct-practice supervisors and workers, as well as non-social work supervisors, the latest, up-to-date ideas and proven "practice wisdom" for handling many of the field's most common problems."--book jacket. |
