After majoring in social ethics, Lesley’s research interests have focused on ethics and work-based learning. As an informal carer, she supported a close relative at home having renal haemodialysis. As a result of this experience, she is aware of the vulnerability of the older person with a long-term condition being cared for in the community during the transition of change in the NHS.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47988889321701,"sku":"NP9780470518045","price":57.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780470518045.jpg?v=1761781933","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/caring-for-older-people-in-the-community-isbn-9780470518045","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
