Ageing, Disability and Spirituality | Free Book
This collection examines theological and ethical issues of ageing,
disability and spirituality, with an emphasis on how ageing affects
people who have mental health and developmental disabilities.
The
book presents ways of moving towards more effective relationships
between carers and older people with disabilities; ways in which to
connect compassionately and beneficially with the person's spiritual
dimension. The contributors highlight the importance of recognizing
the personhood of all people regardless of age and of disability,
whatever form it takes. They identify factors inherent in personhood
and provide ways of affirming and promoting spiritual well-being for
older people with disabilities.
Valuable reading for
practitioners in aged care, healthcare, chaplaincy, social and
pastoral care, and diversional therapists, this book will also be of
interest to older people, their families and friends.
In The Press
