Spirituality and Aging - Nancy Schweers

Learn about spirituality and the aging process through this presenter’s own experience caring for her 90-year-old mother. Learn more about the exploration of Spirituality and Aging.

Providing medical and everyday care to aging seniors can be a journey in your own spirituality and the person you’re caring for. For seniors, there are changes that can occur in their spiritual mindset. For many, there is a burst of new faith, or a loss of faith. For some there is gratitude for habits of devotion and patterns of acceptance. Others experience challenges beyond their resources and go through feelings of denial and stagnation.
