 Caring for a seriously ill person is not an easy task, the solution of which requires special knowledge and skills. The ignorance of answers to simple questions leads to deterioration of the patient's condition and emotional burnout of the caregiver. But nursing care can be learned.

The Health service Caritas SPb helps those who need care and who provide care.

In the center of the Health service, monthly training sessions are held not only for the relatives of seriously ill people, but also for social workers of complex social service centers. They have been given a training programme in home care. The aim of the program: to transfer special knowledge and skills in home care, to deepen them, to facilitate care and to reduce the associated load.

On May 24, a small but energetic team of Orange Masters of Maletsky House arrived at the Resource center for pregnant women and families with children in difficult life situations to hold a master class on making bracelets for children and their parents. Everybody, including the youngest, made a lot of beauty under the guidance of our specialists Sergei, Kostya and Maria. The participants realized their creative ideas making wide and narrow, decorated with flowers and beads, romantic and laconic, colorful and monochrome bracelets.

We are grateful to Maria and her wards for this unforgettable Master class! And now every bracelet made at the Master class will be a vivid memory of that meeting.
A creative activity was organized for younger children. They made crocodiles and dolls of medical spatulas under the leadership of Natalia Shapoval. Thanks to all participants!!!! Till we meet again!
