You just received a text: your loved one is in the hospital. With coronavirus rampant, the hectic hospital circumstances are real: nursing shortage, patient overload, visitor limitations, and behind those masks, gowns, and gloves, lies an overworked staff from virtually every department.

Your Guide to a Safe and Swift Hospital Stay teaches patients, family, friends, and caregivers how to prevent hospital mistakes (infections, falls, errors) and speed recovery.
