Savvy Resident’s Guide is Book Club Pick!

Posted by Dr. El - December 21, 2012 - Nominations/Awards, Resident education/Support groups

Exciting news!  The Savvy Resident’s Guide is the book club selection for an assisted living facility in California!  I’m thrilled to hear that residents will be discussing the book.  It’s exactly what I hoped for when I wrote it — that the information would get to the people who need it most and that it will generate discussion about how to handle the many challenging situations that arise in long-term care.    I hope the readers find The Savvy Resident’s Guide informative and empowering and I thank them for giving me such a wonderful holiday gift.

Thanks to YOU, I’m a Social Media Rockstar!

Thanks to all of you who voted for me in the SeniorHomes.com Best of the Web 2012 contest.  I’m now a Social Media Rockstar!  The publicity helps promote my forthcoming book, The Savvy Resident’s Guide: Everything You Wanted to Know About Your Nursing Home Stay, But Were Afraid to Ask.   The Web works in mysterious ways, so who knows what other opportunities will come from this to advocate for mental health care in LTC and for our nursing home residents.

Now that I’m a Rockstar, does this mean I get to wear jeans to work?
