Staff in residential services and their readiness to supporting grieving service users

Original language description

Aim: As part of the larger project, the readiness of staff to supporting grieving users with intellectual disabilities in social residential services was explored. Within the project we explored their skills, abilities, knowledge, experience, personal / social capability and motivation, opinions and attitudes and last but not least we described the profile of workers (work experience, age, education, sex) and profile of the residential services (number of staff, internal regulations relating to death and mouring, education of employees) involved. Method: Semi-structured questionnaire for workers conducted in all regions of Czech Republic (n=220). The data were evaluated by SPSS. Results: Educational attainment significantly influences the opinion and attitude of workers in social residential services. Length of practice, work experience or age are far from such influence. Internal documents withnin the services relating to death and grieving significantly shape the perception of the workers. Conclusion: This project brings the insight into the area of grieving in people with intellectual disabilities and more specifically into the work in social residential services. The outcomes of this project can be used in practice.
