This book will take you step by step through the process of consideration and implementation, from feasibility studies to physician education through operational details.Knapp, Mary T. is the author of 'Subacute Care: The Definitive Guide to Hospital-Based Nursing Facilities', published 1995 under ISBN 9780834206410 and ISBN 0834206412.
