Intermediate Care of Older People

Intermediate Care of Older People

Price: $38.33 (as of 2013-09-21 - Details)



Intermediate care has become a buzzword within health and social care over the last few years. Seen as the panacea for a number of woes, particularly for older people, intermediate care has been held up as a way forward within contemporary health and social care.The debate then moves on to centre on older people, discussing first why older people have come to be perceived as one of the main client groups that may benefit from intermediate care, and then how intermediate care could be developed to better serve their needs. An overview of ageing and the uniqueness of older people is then provided, followed by an exploration of some of the challenges faced by older people within society - and how this has extended into the delivery of health and social care. This text explores in detail what is understood by the concept of intermediate care and, in particular, ways in which the needs of older people can be best met by this new range of services. Initial discussion centres on the concept of intermediate care and the motives for its development.

    Person-Centred Dementia Care: Making Services Better (Bradford Dementia Group Good Practice Guides)

    Person-Centred Dementia Care: Making Services Better (Bradford Dementia Group Good Practice Guides)

    Price: $23.36 (as of 2013-09-18 - Details)



    'The background to person-centred care is covered in depth, from the viewpoint of the Bradford Dementia Group and the late Tom Kitwood. It asks searching questions of readers. For example: "is there an atmosphere of warmth and acceptance to service users?" This straight-talking approach sets out what is acceptable. Dawn Brooker's framework for person-centred care involves value base, individualised approach, and perspectives of the service user and social environment. She provides standard statements or indicators that can be used to compare the care setting with best practice. This is an outstanding book.'- Nursing Standard'The book is a very valuable resource for health and social care professionals looking to find out more about person-centred dementia care.'- Journal of Interprofessional Care'The most useful chapter is that on the social environment. This contrasts examples of interactions that are negative and unconducive to person-centred care with other, practical ways that treat people with dementia with compassion and respect. There are also some useful questions throughout the book to help people collect evidence on whether the care they are delivering is indeed person-centred, and a VIPs framework tool is included to support the systematic assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of practice in this respect.'- Mental Health Today'Person-Centred Dementia Care would be useful in any occupational therapy service that is aimed at the care of older people, where some or all of their clients are experiencing the effects of dementia on their lives. The book will act as a refresher for practitioners and an introduction for students.
