A review by jgraydee
Being Mortal by Atul Gawande

4.0

A good history of end of life care (i.e. nursing home and assisted living) in the United States. The book ends with a discussion of the benefits of hospice care.

If you or a loved one is living with a chronic condition (i.e. terminal cancer) and have exhausted all reasonable treatment options, then this is a highly recommended book.
