Enhancing Well-Being in Later Life Through Innovations in Narrative Care: A Train-The-Trainer Program

The aim of this project is to develop a training program in Narrative Care for health/social care workers who will in turn use their training to organize and facilitate Narrative Care programs for others in their workplace or organization in a cascading manner. The proposed program represents an extension of the hypothesis that the stronger (thicker, broader, deeper) people’s stories of their lives, the greater their inner resources before the challenges of later life in terms of enhanced self-esteem, purpose, and meaning. A train-the-trainer approach is an effective model for increasing knowledge, improving clinical behavior, and producing better patient outcomes.
