A friend who knows the system

Well Asked is written by an Australian doctor with more than 25 years in the health system, as a GP and a hospital medical superintendent. The author has also cared for parents and other family through serious illness, and knows how it feels to be the one at the bedside, trying to understand what's happening.

These guides share what a friend in the know would tell you: who's who, what to ask and how to help, so the stay is easier for you and the person you love.
