Rev A A W Motley

During the first 2 years of the COVID crisis, while others were gripped by fear and paranoia, Dr. Joseph King Jr. was consumed by his compassionate concern for those most vulnerable to that deadly disease. Those most vulnerable included residents of nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Vulnerable because of the facilities, the caregivers, and the administrators. Caring for Others Amid COVID-19 was the product of that compassion. The book is heavy on providing individuals and institutions with superb insight into the capability of caregiving facilities to provide resource availability to their patients in combating the COVID-19 virus.

– Joanne Wilson Private Duty Caregiver Saint Louis Missouri

“Caring for Others” is a book that focuses on caregivers during COVID-19. Many writings on this subject focus on the virus and not the caregiver. In my experience as a 40-plus-year caregiver, I rarely see publications that focus on the caregiver experience. I believe that recruitment and retention are significant in helping others understand how and why we serve our clients. This book also pays great attention to the long-term care industry and the federal government’s response to COVID-19. Thanks for this helpful insight into our service to others during this global pandemic.”

– Kate Hatfield Practicing Mayor Frontenac, Missouri Board President, St Louis Altenheim Board member, Lift for Life Academy

“Joseph King Jr.’s documentation of the recruiting and retention issues in long-term care is spot on! Creating a business case with a clear value proposition for recruiting and retaining talent to care for seniors is compelling. If organizations are going to be able to achieve and sustain minimum standards of care, they must be able to recruit and retain a workforce that has both the capacity and the competencies needed to deliver the best possible care and services to one of our most vulnerable populations. Great read and very timely and accurate for all senior care and services.”
