SWAN Model of Care - For clinical staff
This video provides an overview of the SWAN model of care. The aim is to provide clinical staff with the knowledge and confidence to discuss how the model can be used in practice. It outlines the resources available to offer to the patient and those close to them to help capture positive memories at what is often a difficult time. The resources include handprints, hair locks, teddies, blankets, hearts and memory boxes. Compassion is at the core of this model and summarises how demonstrating compassion can provide comfort for staff too.
