Supporting Independence 4 - Expressions of identity & sexuality
What you'll learn
- ["Respect and value clients' culture and spirituality" 'Promote culturally appropriate care practices' "Support clients' social and emotional development" "Maintain clients' dignity and privacy"]
This module is part of a series of four looking at supporting and promoting independence. In this module, we look at the way that culture and spirituality affect the way the people prefer to receive care. Spirituality and culture are important aspects of a person’s identity, and the way that support workers interact with these aspects of person-hood can affect the client’s well-being and resilience – in positive or negative ways. This module is about choosing to positively support the client in ways that respect and value the client’s culture and spirituality.
Designed for support workers in aged care and disability services.
