Secure TransactionBook Description
They are the solitary heroes tending to the most vulnerable members of society. The dedicated care workers who often operate their grueling shifts far from the presence and protection of colleagues. While these independent guardians provide vital personalized support, the isolated nature of the role comes with unique risks and disadvantages for both staff and residents.
In her new book, Lone Working Techniques in Care Homes, veteran caregiver Chloe Taylor leverages decades of professional insight to delve deep into proven strategies for overcoming the challenges of unsupervised shifts. Pulling from extensive first-hand experience, Chloe provides a practical framework for maximizing productivity, safety, and care excellence even while working independently.
The book explores leading training protocols through to optimal use of modern assistance technology to bolster the lone worker caregiving model with the tools and support systems required for success. Additionally, Williams discusses the implementation of enhanced organizational policies and communication channels to better safeguard isolated staff from risks ranging from stress disorders to physical injury.
Care workers will gain extensive techniques for customizing care while also fostering meaningful relationships with residents even in the absence of team collaboration. Meanwhile, administrators and organizational leadership discover guidance on investments in revised procedures, virtual partnerships, and safety-centric monitoring technology with immense potential to mutually uplift and secure both vulnerable care staff and those entrusted to their solitary care.
