Tenderness for Life - Self-Assessment Tool
Short description
The Tender4Life self-assessment tool includes a set of questions aimed to measure elderly care workers’ performance and skills assessment (with correspondence to behavioural descriptors), their level of proficiency and to identify their training needs.
The conceptual approach underlying the generation of the items was based on a set of “humanistic care competences” identified in an earlier stage of the Tenderness for life project and described in the report “Tenderness for life competences description”.
Humanistic care competences
Autonomy
Collaboration and communication
Quality of life
Compassionate care
Privacy
Respect of dignity of the care recipient
Digital competences
Who can use it?
Direct users: Care professionals
Indirect users: Care providers - elderly care institutions, both public and private working as residential homes, nursing homes, home-care services, day care centres or others working for older adults in need.
How to use it?
The first step is to go online Tender4Life Assessment Tool and choose the language preference.
Then, in order to recall a vivid day-to-day experience rather than a generic behavior, you will be asked to think about the last month of work and rate how you behaved in accordance with each statement using a 5-point scale (1 = “not at all” to 5 = “very much”). The total number of questions is 28 and the estimated time to fill it is 20 minutes.
Results
The next step after the submission of your answer will be to receive an email, containing a document with a copy of your answers and above each statement the available module within Tender4Life training, and also, a shortlist of recommendations to guide you through the learning process. The recommendations you will receive are based on the score you obtain for each competence.
Now that you have the results, you are ready to step into the learning adventure designed by the Tender4Life partners - B-learning Course for Elderly Care Workers on Humanistic Care.
