V/F Validation; the Feil Method- How to Help Disoriented Old-Old

Feil, Naomi

Feil Publications

My mom was in a skilled nursing facility, and recently passed away. Prior to that happening this book was loaned to me by one of the staff. I was so impressed I bought my own copy from Amazon, and have since loaned it to my niece. It describes certain types of elderly patients who are dealing with unresolved issues from their early childhood, and the various stages they might be in. Then describes methods of dealing with them. By the time I came upon this book it was too late to do very much; but I urge any of you working with an elderly person possibly suffering from some form of dementia to have a look at this book. It is well written, easy to understand and fascinating and may prove helpful. ( Amazon customer)

Validation: Ein Weg zum Verständnis verwirrter alter Menschen

Reinhardt Ernst

Este libro propone un método práctico para comunicarse con las personas muy mayores que sufren desorientación y para ayudarles a recuperar su dignidad, seguridad y bienestar. En las últimas etapas de la vida, los muy mayores regresan a menudo al pasado y se refugian en la confusión o la fantasía. Para Naomi Feil, este regreso al pasado no es una enfermedad mental, sino una técnica de supervivencia. El método que la autora expone en este libro enseña a reconocer los síntomas de la desorientación y los factores sociales, físicos y emocionales que la provocan. A través de la escucha atenta y empática, del contacto visual y del tacto, es posible quebrar el aislamiento que la desorientación produce en los muy mayores y empezar a comprender e interpretar sus sentimientos. Naomi Feil desarrolló el método "Validación" entre 1963 y 1980 como respuesta a su insatisfacción con los métodos tradicionales de trabajo con los muy mayores desorientados. En 1982 publicó Validation: The Feil Method, del que este libro es una versión actualizada y revisada. Entre otros libros y artículos científicos, Naomi Feil también ha publicado The Validation Breakthrough. Actualmente, el método "Validación" es aplicado en todo el mundo y forma parte de los programas de formación de gerocultores y cuidadores de geriatría.
