The development of care approaches centred on people's wishes and autonomy entails the need for resources and strategies that promote it. From Matia and ACP Gerontology we wanted to contribute to the establishment of good practices applicable either at home or in social and health centres, with the publication of a material that is part of the project "Routes for the Advancement of Person-Centred Care".

15th European Lares-EAN Congress: "Securing rights in long-term care".

  Date:
 Type: Congress
 Line of Knowledge: 
 Location: Online

Just one year ago, all our hopes were pinned on vaccination as the only way to end the health pandemic caused by COVID-19. We lived through a very tough 2020, with fear and suffering. But where we showed that, despite everything, even the Administration's interest in keeping the elderly locked up and isolated, they can (and should) be treated with dignity. They showed us that they are stronger than they think they are and, unwittingly, they gave us new energy to continue to be by their side and that of their families.

 Location: Donostia-San Sebastián

Internationally, it is considered essential that, in interventions aimed at people at risk or in a situation of dependency or disability, integrated care is applied and that the person-centred care approach is practised in the intervention. This implies a paradigm shift that affects agents and professionals working in these areas: health, disability and ageing.
