Ageism and Person-Centred Care: Rehabilitating Bias for Age-Friendly Practice

By Stephen Buetow

This thought-provoking book exposes the values, judgements, and hierarchies that underlie ageism in care settings. Destabilizing the assumption that biases like ageism are always bad, Buetow suggests that ageism is normatively neutral and that truly person-centred care requires situated acknowledgement of and responsiveness.
