These are just a few of the many genuine issues raised in Angil Tarach-Ritchey’s new release Behind the Old Face – Aging in American and the Coming Elder Boom. But she doesn’t just raise thought provoking ideas and leave them to be flattened in the pages of the book when it’s closed. This author, whose entire career has been devoted to the care of seniors, offers real answers in her well thought out and workable plan for a senior community.
Angil Tarach-Ritchey’s rich background of experience with our elderly is apparent from the very first chapter where she describes in exquisite detail how, as a seventeen year-old, she began her career in geriatrics. Her awareness of the unique needs of seniors is evident throughout this well written book.
The author addresses real concerns that our elderly encounter: financial devastation, neglect, social isolation, physical decline, memory issues and more.
Her detailed interviews with several seniors reveal the rich, amazing lives of incredible people if we would just “listen.” Sadly the elderly are shamefully disregarded and discarded. Without a comprehensive plan, seniors will wither away squandering their assets just on the cost of medications.
It is a travesty! Via this book Behind the Old Face – Aging in American and the Coming Elder Boom Angil Tarach-Ritchey educates us, enlightens us and empowers us to wake up, stand up and show up to genuinely make a difference! Everyone over 30 should read this book and pay attention.… (mere)
