Life Story Work
Training for the health & social care sector; you will learn how Life Story Work can be a valuable tool in providing relationship based and person centred care and support.
Life Story Work is the process of eliciting and capturing people’s stories about what matters to them – in the past, present and the future. It enables us to see people as individuals in the context of their relationships, enabling their rights to be respected and valued.
It also promotes their personhood, their wellbeing and keeps them connected with family, friends and communities.
Our Life Story Work training consists of three modules which include:
• An in-depth Introduction and Carer’s Story
• The Principles; Concerns, Consent, Confidentiality and the Outcomes
• Ideas for Getting Started, Practical Tips and Techniques.
A person’s story is at the heart of who they are and how they have arrived at the here and now. Life Story Work is embedded in Human Rights and is the basis for moving into a relationship-based and person-centred care culture.
