BEREAVEMENT AND THE OLDER PERSON

Aimed at those working with older people, this half day workshop builds on the two day Bereavement Awareness course and will enable participants to gain competences towards option NC1 of NVQ level 3 in Caring.

It will help carers of all disciplines develop a greater understanding of the effects of loss and grief on older people.

The course will draw attention to and increase the self-esteem and self-worth of participants in loss situations.

The course explores:

• Own responses to bereavement and loss
• Loss and grief in older people
• Society's attitudes to death and dying and older people
• The need to care for ourselves
