It's Good to Have a Friend.
Baker, Ruth
This booklet explains to a prospective volunteer or other person who deals with the elderly their special needs in regard to human relationships and how to satisfy them. The necessity of reinforcing or restoring the older person's sense of worth and dignity is emphasized. Special hints are given for visiting the elderly in a group facility as opposed to at home. (CL)
