This video helps staff, families, residents and other caregivers to understand the importance of maintaining and enhancing one's abilities throughout the life span. We would also like to thank the many older adults living in these homes for graciously volunteering their time to produce this wonderful and much needed video. Restorative Care Education and Training Restorative Care helps provide people who live in long-term care achieve the best quality of life by maximizing their existing abilities. The program includes information on creating a restorative environment, team building, the impact of learned helplessness, and the importance of maintaining physical function for the caregivers.
Training is available to staff from all disciplines within the long-term care environment.
Restorative Care should not be the responsibility of one person, but rather a philosophy that the entire facility supports. Use it as an overview for your facility staff and continue to use it to reinforce the program's benefits to new and existing staff alike. Make your facility known as a place where the residents' well-being and value is the top priority. There are several courses prepared for the new year.
