Purposeful care

Targeted care

Purposeful care shifts the approach from disease and problem-oriented care to care that starts from the person in need of care and support (PZON) and what life goals are important, what really matters to him/her in life. It is about a positive approach to health, starting from a person's goals and strengthening the possibilities to maximize the quality of life.

Why training?

Purposeful care is not something you do alone, of course! In order to work together purposefully, it is important to:

Mapping goals together with the person and their environment
Collaborate interprofessionally to strive for greater quality and continuity of care
Recognize social barriers that may impact the care and support process.

Therefore, we offer training and education that supports this.
