Dr Daniel Nightingale is a highly experienced practitioner with many years clinical and managerial experience in three key areas: - Elderly care
- Learning disabilities
- Forensic learning disabilities
After graduating with a distinction from the National College of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy, he took up post as a Dementia Consultant within the Care Home Sector.
About the Model This model is practicable; it can work. It will work in practise but only if we all embrace it and apply it in our roles. The individual themselves, their family and friends, doctors, nurses, care workers, managers, social workers, commissioning bodies and regulators all have a part to play.
What they are saying about the Model
Professor Clive Ballard, Old AgePsychiatrist and Senior Researcher at the Alzheimer’s Society: Despite all of the developments in our understanding and knowledge, it has been a major obstacle to translate that into better care for people with dementia. Dr Nightingale’s excellent model, steeped in real clinical experience, provides a practical and straightforward approach to bridge the gap between knowledge and practice.
Gary Fitzgerald, Chief Executive, Action on Elder Abuse: I cannot welcome the content of this model too much. It describes a philosophy and approach toward the provision of care that actually goes beyond just Alzheimer’s, and should (in my view) be integrated into the general planning of support for people in general. Whether someone loses power and control over their lives through the effects of Alzheimer’s, a physical disability or the consequences of age, the ‘Nightingale Model’ has the potential to redress the balance as much as is humanly possible. Knowing some of the cases that we have to address through calls to our abuse helpline, I plan to draw attention to this approach every chance I get. Well done.
Victoria A. Metcalfe, Dementia Specialist, Manager Anchor Trust and Approved Trainer with the Alzheimer’s Society: The Nightingale Model of Enriched Care encapsulates the true vision of person centred relationship care, care in the sense of individual acknowledgement and acceptance to and for all. I feel this book would be a valuable tool to all those who are involved in the field of care and indeed for those who are not.
About the CAR Approach
The CAR Approach is useful when providing true person centred care because it encourages everyone, including relatives, professionals and carers, to think about three principle modalities when supporting someone through their journey. These are:
1. COMMUNICATION 2. ATTITUDE 3. RESPONSE
We will look at these in more detail and discuss how they fit in to the Nightingale Model of Enriched Care. The CAR Approach is a cycle of events, and one without the other would be completely ineffectual. The three modalities are interwoven and when incorporated into the everyday care strategy are a key component to increasing wellbeing of each individual.
About Care Deficit Identification Tool This Care Deficit Identification Tool (CDIT) has been developed to work in conjunction with the Nightingale Model of Enriched Care. It is designed to offer swift solutions to common challenges that often lead to care deficits in the nursing and residential home.
About Outcome Measurement Tool From the CDIT Tool we use the ‘Desired Outcome’ and measure the success of the solutions implemented and the individualised approaches using this guidance. It is important to evaluate the outcome score. The evidence should indicate a ‘persons’, sense of ‘well being’.
Ameliorating Transitional Stock This paper will be relevant to all those involved in meeting the holistic care needs of residents, including doctors, nurses, social workers and care assistants. In addition, students of these disciplines can also benefit by reading this paper. An information document and guidance tool for those providing holistic care in long-term, residential and general nursing care environments.
About the 2 day workshop designed to assist with the implementation of the Model and the Toolkit T
The Aim of the workshop is: For learners to become confident and proficient at implementing the model - For learners to expertly use toolkit provided in order to enhance the quality of care
For learners to clearly identify the difference between person centred and task orientated care and the impact these have on the individual - For learners to be able to take back the skills, knowledge and competence in order to implement to model in their workplace.
