It highlights the importance of communication, as carer’s we must communicate as much as possible, explaining what we are doing. It encourages us to share our day with the person. Person centred care planning helps the service user with
Active participation means that they are not just recipients of care but involved in it and supported to be as independent as possible. Again this is empowering and it encourages them to be more aware of potential dangers. Promoting choices and rights shows that carers respect individuals. It might mean acknowledged individuals rights to take risks, accepting choices that the carers might not make for themselves, checking that the individual has full information to make choices etc. It also means understanding your duty of care, maintaining confidentiality etc.
In this paper I will discuss the importance of a framework of praxis, it’s application to the APN, what influences the framework and employing the framework into context. Praxis Overview Praxis has been defined in a number of ways for different disciplines. For the discipline of nursing it has been described as the art of the coming together of science and practice and linking practice and theory (Kilpatrick, 2008). Praxis can arise at an individual or a group level. At the individual level it is recognizing and reflecting on an issue that restricts one’s abilities and experiences, then taking action to change the issue for themselves and others affected (Chinn & Kramer, 2011).
Supporting people to be as independent as possible. Treating people with dignity and respect. Recognising that working with people is a partnership rather than a relationship controlled by professionals. By placing all these together the care plan is tailor-made to that particular person. 1.2 Explain why it is important to work in a way that embeds person centred values The values that underpin our work have an impact on our day to day work.

This will require that I understand and build on the non-verbal clues conveyed by the team, responding accordingly in order to make a connection on a level that works for them. Lastly, my plan should develop so as to allow me to interact with the team on a more social level, perhaps spending time outside the office. My interaction with them on a more personal level should help me feel more relaxed in their collective presence, while retaining a personal connection. Ultimately, as I gain confidence with them, my enthusiastic and positive view of our employees as a whole will take hold in their minds, providing some offset to their wholly analytical views and logical
Additionally, developing self-awareness helps the client to rediscover meaning in life. Some clients will, however, need a more structured therapy than is typical in a humanistic person-centered approach. One of the strengths of using a humanistic/person-centered approach when working with clients is the warmth and caring of the relationship that (hopefully) develops between counsellor and client. The counsellors active listening and full emotional availability will provide them with a healing environment within which they can explore their emotional experiences safely and without judgment. Central to the therapist's role in client-centred therapy is respecting the clients values as well as maintaining a therapeutic nonjudgmental attitude.
The first core belief is the concept of the autonomous, responsible and rational adult. Mezirow believed that the goal of transformational learning is “to gain the crucial sense of agency over ourselves and our lives" that is often associated with individuals reflecting on a dysfunctional operational system or company policy, and taking action to change it. A second core belief relates to knowledge creation that is constructivist. Human beings are active participants in the process of making meaning and are the creators of knowledge and hence engage in critical reflection. The pre-conditions that satiate the concept are full information, the ability to objectively evaluate arguments and freedom from self-deception or coercion.
