About the Book
Life Worth Living is the book you are looking for, if
you want to ensure the best life possible for someone in a nursing
home. The author describes a program that eliminates the three
plagues of nursing homes: loneliness, helplessness and boredom.
The "Eden Alternative" transforms nursing homes into lush,
lively human habitats. Gardens, animals, birds and children bring
life and involvement to settings once associated with death and
infirmity. Residents' lives are changed.
This book provides the how-to steps for "Edenizing" anywhere,
steps that can be followed by both staff and family members. The
Eden Alternative is returning hope to the residents of nursing
homes.
