Learning unit contents
This course will focus on the institutional context and institutional life (MR / MRS). In this context, the course will cover a range of topics such as institutional values, welcoming residents, their life stories, activities in the institutions, and the role of factual observations. Particular attention will also be given to ethical issues related to the institutionalization and to the sexuality in institution. The potential role of the psychologist in these various themes and in their evolution in institutional settings will be discussed.
Outside lecturer may eventually be invited to share their experience in assisting seniors in this specific institutional context.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
This course is intended to be as interactive as possible. It will alternate between lecture and exchanges with students. The time devoted to debate and clinical exchange will be (when possible) based on vignettes, videos, etc. The student must be able to question the way certain clinical situations are 'managed'.
The idea is to push students to take a stand in the face of specific situations. This position must be built on theoretical background based on previous classes and courses (not necessarily specific course on aging).
