The Emotional Model of Care Project

The Regional Municipality of Durham seeks to develop and pilot an Emotional Model of Care that aims to transform the way care is provided to residents in Long-Term Care Homes in the region through a cultural change theoretical lens by piloting change ideas from residents, families and staff to improve care and services. It is an anticipated culture shift from a restricted, simultaneous, task-based system of care to an emotional model of care where person-centered care is championed, and individual care needs are prioritized.
