From: Co-producing a shared understanding and definition of empowerment with people with dementia
Guidance Notes for Workshop Facilitators | |
1. Presentation of the background to the study 2. Discussion on what is means to be a co-researcher and what we would like co-produce (namely, to develop a definition of empowerment that would be relevant and meaningful to PWD) 3. Results from literature search 4. Structured exercise consisting of the following instructions:  - You will each be given a set of cards with different words that have been associated with ‘empowerment’ in the dementia literature  - We would like you to take some time to read through these cards and select (up to) five words that you think best describe empowerment  - We have also given you some blank cards – you might choose to write down some other words to describe empowerment  - We will then have a group discussion to help come up with a definition of empowerment Note. Following these instructions, members were shown the list of constructs and associated empowerment terms identified from the Phase 1 literature search. |
