The Making of a Care Ambassador
1. The Making of A Care
Ambassador
THE CARITAS ENCOUNTER
Charlene Johnson, RN BSN, Caritas Coach
2. Significance……
…………without an awakening and awareness
of
our very Being, our Presence, our Intentionality, and
consciousness AS the field of environment,
we can actually be destructive to self and others.
3. Halldorsdottir Model: Biocidic to Biogenic
Caritas Nursing
Type 1: Biocidic—life destroying (toxic, leading to
anger, despair, and decreased well being)
Type 2: Biostatic—life restraining (cold, or patient
treated as a nuisance
Type 3: Biopassive—life neutral (apathetic or
detached)
Type 4: Bioactive—life sustaining( classic nurse-patient
relationship as kind, concerned, and
benevolent)
Type 5: Biogenic—life giving (life receiving)
(Watson Nursing, 2005: pg 85)
4. What is a “Care
Ambassador”?
A Care Ambassador is a caregiver who has
accepted the assignment to be a heart-centered
support to their patients, coworkers and family.
They do this by making themselves available in
whatever way is needed - whether it be an
encouraging word, a listening ear, a simple
prayer, a hug, or just simply being there.
5. “The Making of a Care Ambassador”.
In a 3-hour workshop titled “The Making of a Care
Ambassador” we invite the participants to
experience forgiveness, gratitude, surrender and
compassionate human service through self-reflective
