Thanks for your work on this series – I used the paper on Jewish Spirituality with my team of Pastoral Care Volunteers at our meeting and it was a great way of discussing the particular needs of Jewish residents! I expect it will also be a great resource for discussions with care staff.

The Spiritual Care Considerations Series is a set of short (one page) guiding thoughts and questions to keep in mind as you care for older people from a range of backgrounds
To support culturally appropriate and sensitive care, the Considerations provide ideas to explore with the older person in your care, and/or their loved ones
Designed as a helpful prompt for staff and volunteers working at any level in the organisation
Developed in consultation with experts and experienced practitioners
New topics are added throughout the year
They can be used as a talking point in staff meetings and/or as a reference point when assessing or reviewing the needs of a new resident or client in your service
You can save, print and/or send copies of these documents to anyone within your organisation
They are available here for Meaningful Ageing Australia member organisations
