5.0 out of 5 stars Should be required reading for all in elder care!!, 14 Feb 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Senior Living Communities: Operations Management and Marketing for Assisted Living, Congregate, and Continuing-care Retirement Communities (Paperback)

I used Mr. Pearce's book as a guide in preparing my presentation at our dept. mgr. retreat last week (giving him credit of course!). As a result, a board member and a fellow dept mgr. ordered their own copies of this book. All-inclusive, professional approaches. I'm surprised--and grateful--that Mr. Pearce shares his expertise so openly. It's refreshing to observe an author whose goal is to raise the bar for quality of care for the elderly, and help his competition achieve same through his generosity in sharing his own experience/knowledge. I'd give away every book in my library before I'd give up this one!!

5.0 out of 5 stars A primer for the novice as well as experienced operators., 11 Dec 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Senior Living Communities: Operations Management and Marketing for Assisted Living, Congregate, and Continuing-care Retirement Communities (Paperback)

I found this book to be succinct without sacrificing the kind of detail that can save hours of research and trial and error. The topics are well-covered and the information is up to the minute. This book will be shared with all departments and be a constant reference point. Well worth the money!
