This unit will focus on the spiritual and psychosocial needs associated with ageing within a trans-cultural context. Students will be introduced to the assessment of the older person, their social and physical environment and the strategies used to maintain holistic health status based on these assessments. The Australian political economy, social issues and trends that impact on service delivery arrangements for healthy, as well as older people with disabilities, will be explored. Processes that may be used to assist the older individual to reach a sense of personal integration will be examined and critiqued as they relate to ministry.
