The Family HUG
for structured assistance
- The diamond shape best describes the model of the enveloping of the patient by his family and also of the volunteer. At this stage, the Yad Tamar Team is involved – professionals giving advice, organizations which can help out…and more.
- The interior area of the diamond describes the work of the volunteers directly with the patient and his family. The model demonstrates the structured combination of the coping abilities of the patient and his family, together with the amount of on-hand assistance given by the volunteer. The higher theability of the patient to cope – the assistance offered is more focused and more short-term.
