Zawa den underbara

Vilken fantastisk känsla det var idag när vi träffade en för oss ny dam med Parkinsons sjukdom och hon utbrast "jag skakade massor innan ni kom, titta nu skakar jag nästan ingenting. Det är tack vara hunden". Vilket fint möte, Zawa la sig ner och vilade så småningom medan jag och damen hade ett härligt samtal om allt mellan himmel och jord.

Glöm inte de äldre - en kampanj från Demensförbundet

Varför låses äldre in ensamma utan personal? Varför kallas patienter numera för "kunder"? Hur är det egentligen ställt med de äldres situation i Sverige? Frågorna om de äldres situation i Sverige idag är många. Svaren är desto färre. I vår podcast ger vi Demensförbundets bild av äldreomsorgen i Sverige idag.http://glömintedeäldre.se

Arbetsterapeutstudent

Idag hade jag och Zawa äran att få ha med oss en student, Irene. Det är så roligt att ha någon med när vi jobbar, våra kunder blev också glada över att hennes besök. Utöver våra stamkunder på Kulltorp valde Zawa ut ännu en kund idag genom att gnälla utanför personens dörr. Vi gick in och det visade sig vara en man som själv haft hund och som blev jätteglad över Zawas spontana visit. Nu kommer vi besöka även honom på tisdagar.

therapy dog breaking new ground

"One client has a four-year-old son who has difficulty making friends and felt shy around the other kids when he first came to the shelter. But he was immediately drawn to Mac, who was perfectly comfortable as kids boisterously leaped on a couch beside him and whose kisses provoked squeaks of delight.

“He’s helpful for clients to talk about their problems, but also not to talk about them,” said family therapist Jennifer Clarke. “They can forget for a moment and just be.”

Clarke wants to have Mac sit in on children’s evening storytime, so that kids who are comfortable with animals can cuddle with him “and get their cozies before bed.”

Mac’s work at the shelter is an initiative of a new group, the Human Animal Vulnerability Coalition, which includes the humane society, the shelter, Family and Children’s Services and other community groups. The coalition has already run free vet clinics for people who can’t afford shots for their pets and has plans to set up a fostering program for the pets of people who are going into hospital, jail or long-term care."

CLEARWATER – She didn’t want to talk about it. Not to her, at least. Not yet. She was 12 or 13 and should have been outside playing, not sitting with a therapist to talk about being sexually abused by a family member. Things like that are not supposed to happen.But then came the dog. Obi, a gentle, tan German shepherd doesn’t judge. In that session, the therapist focused a lot on the dog, and the girl got to go outside and walk her. The therapist finally broke through with the girl. She opened up more. Even in subsequent sessions without Obi present, she was much more open with her therapist.
