The Awakening: Self-Empowerment of Older Adults

I would like to talk about my recent personal experience, but it supports recognition of the importance of personal values ​​and acts in a way that gives power to people rather than weakening them I will. In my community, there is a choir to serve local special nursing home for nursing homes and living support facilities. They sing and interact with people participating in the show and they are very focused on their service activities. In the late 1960s, in the 1970s and 1980s, they were all elderly people.

There are two types of empowerment. It is self empowerment and community empowerment. Self Empowerment in Health Promotion is based on a customer-centered approach aimed at enabling counseling, including uninstalled measures, people to become a higher level living administrator. Although there are many health promotion models (move this paragraph), due to the conditions of Jojo, HAM developed by Tones in the 1970s is used under the behavior change model used to evaluate Jojo Waterfall I will. Behavior change model adopts the way of life they desire and maintains health by treating health as personal property. This is to persuade the purpose of this particular model to change people's behavior and help to maintain health by adapting to a better lifestyle (Naidoo and Wills, 2009).

There are five different approaches to health promotion, such as medical care, prevention, behavior change, education, empowerment, social change. In daily practice of local care, all methods of dealing with depression in the elderly are discussed and understood in various ways of working. Education methods provide knowledge and information and develop necessary skills (Naidoo et al., 2009) so that people can make informed choices about their healthy behavior.
