Start a new DMP in Loading
Based on demographic trends the necessity of 24-hour caregivers, who are not educated nurses, is strongly increasing. With respect to the allowed caring activities performed by the staff, both sides, the staff itself as well as the affected families, have very limited knowledge. Moreover, the 24-hour caring staff is not required to have any specific education. Besides, they usually have insuffiecient knowledge of the cultural background of the person to be cared. The present project pursued to guarantee a coherent set of required qualifications of the home care givers and consequently the proper execution of the assigned tasks in the partner countries. Induced by an increased intercultural sensitivity, the project also targets to strenghten the awareness of the caring staff towards the person in need of care. In order to achieve this goal, the project partners organised information events for the affected family members and elaborated a practical guide/manual for them. The project has also outlined a curriculum exisiting of 4 modules consisting of an intercultural part, an outline of assigned home activities and the assistence in care and empowerment of the person in need of care. To boost interest in this profession a coherent set of required qualification is necessary, at first on a regional and in the longterm on a national and european level. Besides, the collaboration with professional staff should be facilitated. A consistent and approved framework related to educational requirements is at first pursued on a regional level. Later on, a national and even european appraoch is intended. On the one hand, the four project partners, as education providers (TTG, Eurocultura and BFI Tirol), have the opportunity to implement the developed curriculum and learning materials in their region and, on the other hand, they have the political power (AK Tirol) to support the results of the project and the requirements of a uniform qualification in the public, and the structure to make the guide/manual accessible to a broader population.
