Opis

It is more common now than ever before for partners, family members, and friends to provide informal care, yet caregiving in the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities has received little attention. Caregiving with Pride is the pioneering examination of caregiving experiences in the LGBT population that also provides a frank discussion of the issues involved in needing and receiving care as well. This comprehensive, up-to-date text presents practical information for a timely account of this important field.
