Nurturing

Published: 2009
Format: 185 page paperback square

Fourth in the 'Feelings Matter Most' series, Nurturing turns attention on the neglected area of staff support, promoting the need to hear the voices of people working in dementia care.

It encourages organisations to be genuinely interested in person-centred care and the effective recruitment, appraisal, support and retention of staff.

The impact of emotional labour in dementia care must then receive more priority.

Looking at the findings of a UK survey of staff working in dementia care and their responses to naming emotions at work, the book promotes David Sheard's new concept of attached professionalism and identifies how care organisations can develop and nurture an Emotions at Work framework alongside support strategies.
