Summary :

Educational workshops have been set up within a geriatric hospital to allow care givers to experiment their patients’ real-life, using an ageing simulator. The ageing simulator reproduces different physical and sensory disorders that are a part of normal or pathological aging. Professionals are placed in daily situations such as meals, daily hygiene care or mobility assistance, allowing them to observe and experience the disability situations experienced by hospitalized elderly patients.
The workshops carried out to date show us that caregivers’ perceptions of patients’ attitudes are evolving, regarding, for example, their slowness or fatigue. Wearing the ageing simulator or observing their colleagues in disabling situations is surprising and emotionally stimulating. This encourages them to modify their representations and allows us to expect an adjustment of practices.
