ABSTRACT

This module helps carers to understand the stages that Edi needs to go through in their recovery journey and introduces carers to new communication skills that can be used at any stage within this process. Carers often ask how they can help Edi to start to think about change and so the decisional balance exercise is a good starting point to help carers to understand and empathise with the inner thought processes that Edi needs to go through to make that first step.
