| Annotation | This open learning unit introduces the major tenets of gerontology, and includes practical activities which will enable carers to apply the principles introduced in their work with clients. Objectives are based on the idea that care of older people needs to be holistic: to be effective, a carer must consider the client from biological, psychological and sociological viewpoints, and consider individual needs. |
