GET TO KNOW SPIRITUAL CARE

Depression In Old Age

It’s common that seniors often fall

into depression and feelings of

hopelessness at the end of their life

Depression In Old Age

This feeling of despair and

depressing mindset are brought

on by the decline in physical

and mental state of a senior,

along with a decrease in social

interactions, as they grow older

Depression In Old Age

These feelings can also stem

from a senior’s questioning of

his or her own self-identity in

old age, and thoughts of

being abandoned and dying

alone

Depression In Old Age

Normal caregiving routine can’t help in

this kind of situation because the problem

is not external pain but inner pain that lies

inside in the mind and soul of a senior

Spiritual Care

Spiritual care is specialised on

taking care of the spiritual side and

mental health of seniors going

through tough times, helping them

transcend the losses, rediscover

hope, resilience, and inner strength

to move on with their life

Spiritual care can be provided by

carer, psychologists, or pastoral

specialists, and tailored to the

senior’s background & wishes

Spiritual Care

Spiritual Care

While many still question the

legitimacy of this method due to

its religious overtones in a secular

healthcare system, at the root of it

all is taking care of what’s going

on inside the mind of a person

At the end of the day, this

healthcare concept is all about

lifting up the spirit of a senior

and helping them to reach the

state of mindfulness and at ease

at the end of their life
