AnnotationShame is a significant but under-acknowledged emotion in care work. Having written a PhD on shame in the church, the author is working on a project at the University of West of England (UWE) examining the impact of shame in care workers on the quality of dementia care. In this article, she outlines some recent sources relating to shame and stigma, also the the aims of her study. Shame warrants investigation and understanding if we are to improve the quality of care for people with dementia. (RH).
