Introduction
Our workshop on ELDERCARE seeks to help caregivers to be more effective in caring for their loved ones as they understand the biological, psychological, social and spiritual implications of aging.
As despair and other related mental health issues often set in due to the slowing down of their productivity, preventive methods and strategies will be discussed on the promotion of well-being among senior citizens.
How can we help them feel safe and believe that their lives can continue to be meaningful?
How do we meet their emotional needs and help them avoid depression?
Are there steps to deal with vulnerability, loneliness, boredom and isolation?
The Church can support an elderly person’s feeling of connection with the community beyond her family.
As many of our parents/church members will be in this category, let’s equip ourselves to care for them more effectively.
Objectives
- Understand important psychological and spiritual needs in eldercare for both the elderly and the care givers.
- To understand how to support the elderly in their vulnerabilities and as a community.
Target audience
Young adults, Senior adults, care givers, lay helpers working with the elderly, and those interested to learn more about caring for the elderly in their communities.

Event Details
While most of us have learnt how to manage stress in our everyday lives, trauma like natural disasters, tragic accidents, domestic violence and rape could cripple and debilitate our functioning system to work, eat and sleep. Even simple tasks like household chores would drain us of our energy.
Many such victims suffer in silence as their friends and family members often do not understand their suffering and not knowing how to help them. This workshop will help you to know how and when to provide basic care, comfort and support to people experiencing trauma or disaster-related stress.
At the end of the workshop, you will be able to:
- Understand crisis and trauma and the impact on self, family and community
- Recognise symptoms of psychology-related stress, and know where to get the necessary assistance
- Identify ways to take care of yourself before, during and after providing support to the survivors
- Know how to help and when to refer client for professional help

Event Details
“Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak knits up the o’er wrought heart and bids it break.” – William Shakespeare –
All of us experience painful grief or a sense of loss no matter which stage of life we are at. Relationships are broken, disappointments in school and with church, betrayals in the workplace and the sudden decline of health and the inevitable death of loved ones: these make up the range of normal human experiences. However, very often we are told to move on and not dwell on these painful experiences as if they are not real and we must not be weak.
Hence, many people who experience grief expect to bounce back to normal routine, for example as soon as the funeral is over or the divorce papers signed. They are also pushed to act normal and be happy again by well- meaning friends and family.
The fact is sometimes, grievers hide their pain because they think they have to be strong and because they do not want to make others feel uncomfortable that they are taking a longer time to recover.
All that time, people around have no idea of the confusion and grief churning inside their hearts. If not dealt properly, this unresolved grief can have negative and long term effects on the happiness of the griever.
By the end of this workshop you will learn:
- the meaning of grief
- the emotional, physical and psychological effects of grief
- how to help the griever to recover
