In short: Develop case understanding, train analytical skills, create individual care plans, and experience the theory-practice transfer. Care planning presents a specific challenge for many caregivers and trainees in elderly care. It is essential to master it as best as possible - both for the benefit of those being cared for and within the framework of quality management. This book offers current, methodological, and particularly practical insights, specifically for gerontological care. Based on the PESR format, numerous case examples, guidelines, and worksheets convey relationships and demonstrate the advantages of good care planning. Thus, a task that is only moderately popular in everyday nursing becomes a meaningful tool. Caregivers learn to: - observe closely, - describe individually, - formulate clearly, - exchange knowledge competently - even with other professional groups.
