Eldership and Advocacy

This Process Work research paper inspires eldership and practical advocacy in senior palliative care situations and institutions by exploring personal barriers to social action and spiritual healing. Personal barriers may include: 1) working on a symptom, relationship issue, or deep inner state of consciousness in semi-public settings; 2) facilitating healthcare visits with loved ones; 3) mentoring healthcare providers and their treatments; 4) fear of being around aging and death, and the related planning, and; 5) the end-of-life processes.
