Working with HEART: A guide for older people receiving care
A clear, accessible guide to understanding what holistic, person-centred spiritual care can look like in aged care.
Working with HEART: A guide for older people receiving care has been created to help older people and their families understand the care described in The HEART Model – Guidelines for Enhancing Wellbeing through Holistic, Person-centred Spiritual Care.
Written in clear, approachable language, this practical guide explains what holistic care, person-centred care and spiritual care mean in everyday life. It shows how good care can recognise the whole person, including their identity, culture, relationships, beliefs, values, life story and the things that give them meaning and purpose.
The guide introduces the six areas covered by The Guidelines and explains what each can look like from the perspective of an older person receiving care. These include being known as an individual, having opportunities for meaning and purpose, maintaining relationships and belonging, receiving thoughtful palliative care and end-of-life care, being supported by a well-cared-for workforce, and having individual identity and diversity recognised and respected.
Each section includes simple “What this looks like for you” statements, making the ideas easier for older people and families to understand and discuss with those involved in their care.
