For a Carer to understand ways to support the emotional and spiritual needs of those in their care is vital, valuable and rewarding. We have the opportunity to help people in a profound and heartfelt way. Good emotional care is as important as good medical practice and this chapter explores how and why.

For example cultivating patience and understanding  of the anxieties of an Elder entering a care home who possibly may be unsure as to whether they are moving into a community of emotional support or spending the rest of their days in an institutionalised environment.
