| Summary |
"In this text, Neil Pembroke shows how relationships form the heart of chaplaincy, nursing and social care practice. Developing ideas from Martin Buber and virtue theory he shows how authentic, compassionate self-communication form, the basis of relatedness in human services work. Drawing on examples from everyday life and health and social care work settings, Pembroke demonstrates the importance of trust and feelings of belonging in the human services working environment."--BOOK JACKET |
