Assignment 207 Understand person centred approaches in adult social care settings Assignment composition Assignment overview In this assignment you will demonstrate your knowledge of person-centred care. You will explore what is meant by the term ‘consent’, define person-centred values, and consider how active participation can be used to best effect. You will consider how risk assessments can support informed choices and examine the factors that contribute to the well being of individuals using the service. Tasks There are three tasks to this assignment. A Information leaflet B Short answer questions C Case studies This is a summary of the evidence required for the unit.
The theorist’s background and perspectives will be explained and lastly the theory will be discussed as to how it can serve as an underpinning and improve nursing practice. Concepts for the Grand Theory When comparing a grand theory to a middle range theory, a grand theory is much more abstract that uses a wide scope to explain and define broad issues. A middle range theory is more specific, focused and concrete (Eldridge, 2014). Watsons’s theory of human caring is a good example of a grand theory. Watson’s theory takes on a holistic approach to providing care for the patients all around wellbeing.

The Family Center Care (FCC) is an advance to the planning, delivery and evaluation of health care that is founded in the similarities of partnerships among health care providers, patients, and families. The FCC enables health care practitioners the importance of creating relationships with family members of the patients whether the patient are little children or adults. They recognize that social, emotional and developmental support systems are important aspects to look for in health care. The Family Center Care promotes better outcomes of patient care because families are there to restore self-esteem and control them in a well manner. It leads to better outcomes and it creates better patient and family satisfaction.
Assessment Tool Analysis Paper The purpose of this paper is to describe the assessment tools that evaluate on physical measure. The three assessment tools used will be the Daily Hassles Scale, Dysfunctional Attitude Scale, and the Well Being Picture Scale. This writer will apply Watson’s Theory of Human Caring to each of the tools, and how each tool integrates the mind-body-spirit dimensions and the population for which they are useful. This paper will include data such as cost, length, and ease in using each of these tools. It will tell which populations are best designed for each tool, how these tools can enhance the assessment phase of the nursing process, and the impact of quality of health care delivered by the nurse.
Running head: IMPROVING QUALITY PATIENT CARE AND SAFETY Improving Quality Patient Care and Safety Betty Miller Western Governors University RTT1 Task 1 Improving Quality Patient Care and Safety The American Nurses Association developed nursing-sensitive indicators for the purpose of improving quality patient care and safety. Nursing-sensitive indicators are the patient outcomes that have been clinically researched and proven to be directly linked to nursing care. Nursing-sensitive indicators are based upon the organization of care, nursing care process and results of patient focused outcomes. The organization or structure of nursing care is reflected by the quantity and quality of nursing staff. The structure indicators are related to nursing staff characteristics such as the skill mix, experience, certification and education of the nurses.
3. Historical changes in family structure and the theoretical diversity of relationships within the family.The Objectives of these Notes are to allow you to understand: 1. The difference between commonsense and sociological conceptions of family life. 2. The interpretation of statistical evidence relating to family diversity.
In doing this I have assessed the family under several different headings which are ecological and life course approach, ethics and values in practice, parenting capacity, the community, attachment, developmental psychology, new sociological studies of childhood and assessment and intervention. Assessing the family through these various headings I have made many assumptions which are linked to the case study (see appendix 1) and the video (see appendix 2). The Ecological Perspective and Life Course Approach The ecological perspective was developed by Bronfenbrenner in 1979 and is a holistic approach to human development which analyses interactions between an individual and various nested environments (Bronfenbrenner, 1979). Bronfenbrenner (1979) proposes that the developing child (the individual person) is in the centre of the nested structures and each layer interacts with each other and the individual. The ecological perspective reiterates that children do not develop in isolation (Bronfenbrenner, 1979).
Using patient satisfaction surveys the health care organization can collect the data. This information can help the quality management team understand the patient’s perspective on the care they are being provided and their overall experience. The design of the survey is a key issue for the quality team. Health care organizations can take advantage in purchasing patient satisfaction surveys. Hiring an outside agency to collect the data can be more valid in the sense that it is more reliable and relevant information for the health care organization.
CONTINUES….. Among a number of factors responsible for delinquency the greatest amount of research has been done with reference to family. This is appropriate because of the vital significance often family as “The cradle of personality”. The basic reaction patterns of thinking and feeling are established during the early years in and through the family. EXPERTS VIEW Breckenridge and Abbott in their book on “The Delinquent Child and the Home (1916)” indicate that family deficiencies are correlated with delinquency.
