Magical moments in geriatric care by Sonja Schiff
Care for the elderly is relationship and emotional work. It requires courage and competence to deal with the past of old people, with experienced happiness in life as well as with grief and despair. Many caregivers have a longing to meet old people. Nevertheless, many contacts remain on the surface out of uncertainty or fear. An essential empathetic experience is thus lost. Because special encounters can arise when caregivers dare to really get involved with old people.
It is precisely these magical moments that make geriatric care so exciting for many caregivers. They strengthen job satisfaction, give strength for difficult professional times and are a reason why nurses stay in the profession that has been completely underestimated to date.Sonja Schiff tells her own key experiences with old people and also lets other people - different professionals from geriatric care and geriatric care - have their say in the form of structured interviews. Stories were created that deeply touch the reader and give them strength. Coupled with a passionate plea for an urgent further development of geriatric care and criticism of the existing system, she also explores the question of what part caregivers themselves play in achieving a magical moment and how they can implement it. Each chapter is introduced and ended with tasks that motivate you to try them out.
An "encouragement book" for all nursing and care staff in geriatric care. However, it is also aimed at managers of geriatric care facilities, relatives and people active in social policy.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
