Description

What are the hallmarks of anthroposophical caregiving methodology that are necessary for the provision of ‘good care’?In recent decades, healthcare has undergone a transformation.

Clients demand good care, and providers are expected to deliver it.

Care and treatment methods are made explicit, quality standards are set and cyclical evaluations made, leading to a goal of continuous optimization.

In special education and social therapy – for people with developmental disabilities and mental health issues – an effective and high-quality caregiving methodology based on anthroposophy has been developed over the past century and is currently practised in dozens of countries around the world.

Developed from research by Rudolf Steiner and the experiences of numerous co-workers over decades, this methodology is described alongside its scientific basis and ethical principles.

Good Care is an ideal handbook for caregivers, parents and carers, explaining how anthroposophical care is interpreted and translated into quality daily practice. Chapters include: ‘Value-based caregiving – Ethical premises of anthroposophical care for persons with developmental disabilities’; ‘Spiritual-psychological aspects of developmental disabilities’; ‘The professional identity of the professional caregiver’; ‘The caregiving process from a methodological perspective’; ‘The caregiving methodology scientifically justified’.
