Study Guide

Objective

Students learn to apply the psychosocial approach and professional interaction in counselling in resential care units. Students recognize clients' challenges of managing daily activities, leading an independent life and achieving a home-like environment in temporary or permanent residential care (child or youth welfare services, services for mentally disabled people, aged people and for people with mental health problems or drug misuse problems). Students learn to define factors pertaining to clients' privacy and self-determination as well as to restrictive interventions, and they learn to promote their clients' individuality, full participation and citizenship. Students learn to explain the role of personal key workers and the councelling work methods used by personal key workers in various communities. Students learn to organise activities in a community, activiting and counselling residents to participate as far as their resources will allow. Students promote the integration of residential care communities into society. They make it possible, for example, for the clients to have cultural experiences or to enjoy nature, taking into account the principles of sustainable development. Students evaluate and develop their action.
