Waiting at the Gate: Creativity and Hope in the Nursing Home

By David R. Johnson, Susan L. Sandel, David Johnson

The result of hands-on research, this exciting book provides both theoretical and practical guidelines for creative arts therapies, specifically in movement and drama, that can be implemented in nursing homes. The authors passionately challenge the "waiting to die" phenomenon of some nursing homes and offer alternatives to residents of the new institutions of the 1990s.
