This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2006 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, grade: A-, Victoria University of Wellington, language: English, abstract: This essay considers the question whether the family group conference should be introduced as a new and additional means of decision-making in New Zealand’s adult guardianship law. Currently the Family Law knows the family group conference only in another context: When there are special problems with children the Children, Young Persons and Their Families Act 1989 gives the family as a group the authority to make decisions con-cerning the child. The question is whether this procedure is also suitable for decision-making on the affairs of adult family members who are not capable of leading their lives autonomously and cannot make their own deci-sions, for example because they suffer from mental disease or an intellectual handicap. After providing an overview of the current adult guardianship law, its principles and shortcomings, the family group conference will be presented and discussed as it works under the Children, Young Persons, and Their Families Act 1989. The main part of this research paper, then, deals with the advantages and disadvantages of the family group model being introduced for matters of adult guardianship. It will be considered whether this decision-making model can cope with the shortcomings of the current system and whether it serves the guiding principles of adult guardianship law. Although family group conferences do not always work without problems, this essay recommends their introduction also for adults. The inclusion of the wider family in the decision-making process has many benefits for the concerned person, especially in terms of his or her best interest being realised. Besides, the family group model fits well into the current regime, serves its guiding principles, and is able to remedy the current system’s shortcomings. Hence, the decision by the family group is of additional value when dealing with the affairs of adults who are not able to make “healthy” decisions for themselves, and should therefore be introduced as an additional means of decision-making.

Book excerpt: Family Group Conferencing indicates a large-scale shift in assumptions about the way child welfare services are planned and delivered - away from models that emphasize pathology, and toward those seeking an ecological understanding of the families and social networks involved. The contributors also present a wealth of information on related approaches, such as community conferences, circles, and wraparound services.

This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family caregiving affects millions of Americans every day, in all walks of life. At least 17.7 million individuals in the United States are caregivers of an older adult with a health or functional limitation. The nation's family caregivers provide the lion's share of long-term care for our older adult population. They are also central to older adults' access to and receipt of health care and community-based social services. Yet the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the least appreciated challenges facing the aging U.S. population. Families Caring for an Aging America examines the prevalence and nature of family caregiving of older adults and the available evidence on the effectiveness of programs, supports, and other interventions designed to support family caregivers. This report also assesses and recommends policies to address the needs of family caregivers and to minimize the barriers that they encounter in trying to meet the needs of older adults.
