relational care
Relational care focuses on building meaningful, respectful connections between caregivers and individuals receiving care. It emphasizes understanding each person's unique experiences, preferences, and emotional needs, fostering trust and a sense of belonging. This approach moves beyond simply providing tasks or services, aiming to create a supportive environment where individuals feel valued, cared for, and empowered. By prioritizing relationships, relational care improves well-being, promotes dignity, and encourages active participation in their own care process.
