Acerca de esta escucha
A guiding light to help you return home after being hospitalized. Written by a seasoned Director of Social Services in skilled nursing.
This manual serves as a compass to help you on your journey thru rehabilitation, written as a resource for the patient.
My name is Lauren Reynolds, and I've been supporting patients in their post-acute rehab journeys since 2015. In doing this, I've gained a wealth of information from having hundreds of experiences with every sort of diagnosis and patient under the sun, and their families!
This material is just long enough to listen to while sitting in your hospital bed recovering, with highly relevant information that is key. The audiobook can be accessed instantly on phone or tablet, and you can be prepared for your skilled nursing stay before you even get there.
There are distinct moving parts in each skilled nursing facility and knowing what to expect can ease anxiety and stress. Like having a catastrophic health event isn't enough, right?
The information I provide in this guide will provide comfort, education, and peace of mind as you recover on your unique journey.
I have written this manual for patients and families navigating their way through the maze of the healthcare system, the hospital, and then a stay for physical therapy in skilled nursing. My goal is to empower patients and families to take control of their health and the process.
I've wanted to share a simple manual in laymen's terms working in this field for years. There is a need for a manual for the patient, as I have not found anything that exists like this book I have written.

In Being Mortal, best-selling author Atul Gawande tackles the hardest challenge of his profession: how medicine can not only improve life but also the process of its ending. Medicine has triumphed in modern times, transforming birth, injury, and infectious disease from harrowing to manageable. But in the inevitable condition of aging and death, the goals of medicine seem too frequently to run counter to the interest of the human spirit.

Historia
Throughout my life I have done things my way, and they have always worked out - as if I've had luck in my corner. All of my optimism and bravado came to a crashing halt one cold December holiday night, when after an evening out with good friends, I suffered an accident. I was beaten with a pipe and later found under a moving train, resulting in quadriplegia. Given virtually no chance to walk again, I was devastated. But I also had hope, and lots of it. A fire that exists deep within, and has since childhood, burns on no matter the circumstances. I am here for a bigger mission. What would that mission now be?

In his second book, James Maskell shows how the community - specifically, group medical visits - can help us solve these challenges. A supportive community provides the context for ongoing healthy behaviors, a key to reversing chronic illness.

Historia
The biggest problem in American health care is us. Do you know how to tell good health care from bad health care? Guess again. As patients, we wrongly assume the "best" care is dependent mainly on the newest medications, the most complex treatments, and the smartest doctors. But Americans look for health-care solutions in the wrong places. For example, hundreds of thousands of lives could be saved each year if doctors reduced common errors and maximized preventive medicine.

There’s a quiet revolution happening in the way we die. More than 1.5 million Americans a year die in hospice care - nearly 44 percent of all deaths - and a vast industry has sprung up to meet the growing demand. Once viewed as a New Age indulgence, hospice is now a $14 billion business and one of the most successful segments in health care. Changing the Way We Die, by award-winning journalists Fran Smith and Sheila Himmel, is the first book to take a broad, penetrating look at the hospice landscape.

Imagine finding a glimmer of good news in a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. And imagine how that would change the outlook of the five million Americans who suffer from Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, not to mention their families, loved ones, and caretakers. A neurologist who's been specializing in dementia and memory loss for more than 20 years, Dr. Gayatri Devi rewrites the story of Alzheimer's by defining it as a spectrum disorder - like autism, Alzheimer's is a disease that affects different people differently.

Historia
Despite modern medicine's infatuation with high-tech gadgetry, the single most powerful diagnostic tool is the doctor-patient conversation, which can uncover the lion's share of illnesses. However, what patients say and what doctors hear are often two vastly different things. Patients, anxious to convey their symptoms, feel an urgency to "make their case" to their doctors. Doctors, under pressure to be efficient, multitask while patients speak and often miss the key elements.

In The Long Fix, physician and health-care CEO Vivian S. Lee, MD, cuts to the heart of the health-care crisis. The problem with the way medicine is practiced, she explains, is not so much who's paying, it's what we are paying for. Insurers, employers, the government, and individuals pay for every procedure, prescription, and lab test, whether or not it makes us better - and that is both backward and dangerous.

Amazing Guide for post-acute Rehab
This manual takes you through your first time skilled nursing stay, clearing unknowns along the way and reducing so much of the anxiety. Great information and it can help you communicate to staff. The author, Lauren, clarifies and reminds you of your options and rights. It is like having someone in your corner, not just anyone but someone really knowledgeable and caring. And something about the wonderful voice of the narrator Alexandra, makes you feel seen and supported during this crazy difficult time. 48 minute run time is great, makes it easy to take in. Wholeheartedly recommend for both you and your family members or caretakers.
