It does seem appropriate to focus more of our hope and possibly resources on care itself, and on the creation of attitudinal shifts toward the affirmation of the deeply forgetful. There is no compound available yet that promised to slow or cure dementia. We can have hope in dietary modifications that may delay onset; compassionate carers who manifest our deepest sense of a shared humanity despite cognitive decline; the increasing evidence for enduring selves beneath the chaos of neurological devastation; and the possibilities of a spiritual–cultural evolution toward acceptance, affirmation, and connection with the deeply forgetful. This paper will discuss and critically assess these sources of hope in the world of the deeply forgetful.","PeriodicalId":89406,"journal":{"name":"Journal of care services management","volume":"5 1","pages":"160-167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175016811X13020827976807","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65652771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comprehensive search of databases identified 29 articles that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The articles were reviewed to identify the main themes, and a random sample of papers was reviewed by a second reviewer; this showed good inter-rater reliability (agreement among them). The articles included one literature review, 16 articles about specific courses, and 12 on issues focusing on learning and development. A number of details were collected from each article where available (i.e. background, main aims, and main findings). The review highlights a number of issues. Firstly, there is a large amount of information missing, including information about ethics, piloting, and sampling methods. Furthermore, there is a lack of user and carer involvement both as researchers and participants. Additionally, there is virtually no...","PeriodicalId":89406,"journal":{"name":"Journal of care services management","volume":"5 1","pages":"115-124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175016811X12955443670383","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65652254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We draw on the findings of a small-scale evaluation of the training scheme and its subsequent implementation within four provider organizations to describe some of the difficulties associated with transporting the emotional loyalty process from marketing to social care. We conclude that any future management training targeted at improving retention rates should look towards developing more mainstream approaches to staff supervision and appraisal, acknowledging the potential therein for a much greater focus on relationship and emotional competency issues.","PeriodicalId":89406,"journal":{"name":"Journal of care services management","volume":"5 1","pages":"97-104"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175016811X12966397673713","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65652407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such problems may be the result of disturbances to low-level visual functions such as contrast sensitivity, colour vision, or visual acuity, for example. In addition, dementia can have detrimental effects on higher cognitive aspects of visual function such as visual attention, spatial localization, object recognition, facial recognition, and visual memory. The underlying cause of these visual problems is likely to be a result of a combination of a number of different factors (it is recognized that medication can also affect vision, but this will not be discussed here): (1) the direct patho-physiological effects of dementia on the brain and visual system, (2) the losses in visual function that occur as part and parcel of the normal ageing process, and (3) the losses in visual function that are a consequence of ocular diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, or cataracts, which are more common i...","PeriodicalId":89406,"journal":{"name":"Journal of care services management","volume":"5 1","pages":"105-114"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175016811X12966389037637","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65652321","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Roberts","doi":"10.1179/175016811X12955443670068","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1179/175016811X12955443670068","url":null,"abstract":"This year heralds the dawn of a new era of critical change for health and social care in Britain. The first steps towards achieving the most important reforms for more than 60 years will be taken in the next few months. This is a watershed for us all— an opportunity to be part of a process that will shape our care services for the next generation. The cynics among us will no doubt question the coalition government’s ability — or will — to bring about significant transformation. Some, with good reason, will argue that we have reached this point in the very recent past and accomplished nothing but inaction, indecision, and a trail of broken promises and infantile disagreements. When Gordon Brown unveiled a white paper in March last year outlining plans for a national care service for England there was little prospect of the proposed reforms becoming reality. His party was in disarray as a general election approached and the pledges of historic change became lost in the wreckage of election defeat. Significantly, the coalition government has announced a timetable for revolutionizing care early in its prospective 5 years in power. Whatever we think of its radical, ground breaking, controversial, and, many would argue, over-ambitious plans, it has given itself time to define a blueprint for genuine change. Having said this, the path ahead is going to be immensely difficult. There is no quick fix; there will be opposition to many proposals being put forward and uncomfortable compromises will need to be considered, particularly in these tough and uncertain times with businesses going to the wall and more people losing their jobs and homes. We are being bombarded with white and green papers for reforming virtually every nook and cranny of health and social care. In fact, I observed in jest recently that so many documents outlining proposals for change have been revealed in the run up to and start of 2011; we may soon be able to see them from outer space! It is worth reminding ourselves of the coalition government’s daunting programme for health and social care reform:","PeriodicalId":89406,"journal":{"name":"Journal of care services management","volume":"5 1","pages":"63-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1179/175016811X12955443670068","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65652024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
