Now! A powerful teaching
tool for Eden Alternative Education! This ten video set includes a separate teaching
video for each of the Ten Eden Alternative Principles. These principles form the
foundation through which a long-term care home can begin to change the culture of their
organization to provide a more energized caregiving staff and a better quality of life
for the residents who live there.
Each video features Dr. William H. Thomas, the founder of the Eden Alternative. Using
stories, real-life examples, and clear, simple explanations Dr. Thomas brings a clear
understanding of each principle and how it applies to a long-term care setting. This
series can provide insights and generate interest with any group. They can be particularly
helpful with staff in-services, family or resident councils, community groups, and so on.
"We purchased this teaching set last year and it has proved invaluable in our Edenizing
effort. The tapes are excellent - we use them continually as new staff and other
individuals become part of our community. They are clear and easy to understand, and also
very entertaining. They have been a source of growth for my Eden Associates who wanted to
help educate others about what they had learned, but may not have a lot of experience at
teaching or public speaking. I would recommend these tapes for any Edenizing home."
