PERSON CENTRED APPROACH (P.C.A)

Hi All

Hopefully some of you would have just had a fantastic week on placement and gathered a range of new experiences to discuss. The rest of you will be entering into your placement on Monday, so enjoy and make the most of every opportunity to develop personally and as a professional.

Below are some new artcles relating to P.C.A and further information will be added regularly. Your role is to now read these new updates and POST information that you find independently, that relates to this subject. The task for the next two weeks is to publish a post that is either a video or a newspaper article relating to P.C.A and also to write down at least 2 experiences, YOU have had with Dementia.

GOOD LUCK and WELL DONE

GOOD WORK

Well Done everyone, well researched. Keep up the good work and I am looking forward to see you in class. Those who have not yet posted an article!!! Get Blogging!!

Hi All

Welcome to 2011!!

As discussed in our lesson, we will be using this blog on a regular basis. I would like you all to communicate any new updates, information, news etc regarding your findings about Dementia and Unit 40 via this blog space. I will be checking it regularly for updates and may be putting updates on here also.

Remember when using the blog there are key groundrules: Use it professionally - it is not a space to air your grievances or complaints, Validity - just because it is written on here does not mean it is accurate always check that the information you have and the source it is from is genuine and correct.
