I have to act in the person’s best interest but instead of encouraging them to avoid risks I have to support them and enable them to taking part in activities. I have to act in the individuals best interest, keep them safe, carry out risk assessments, promote informed choices but also respect their decision and right to live their life as they choose. If the risk seems great to me I would document it and discuss the matter with my manager. Another area where duty of care dilemmas may arise are confidentiality issues. When a confidential information is shared with me and it concerns safeguarding and there is a possibility of harm or someone’s wellbeing is threathened I might have to make a decision and disclose this information.
1.2Explain how duty of care contributes to the safeguarding or protection of individuals Following a Code of Practice and thinking about your duty of care means that your practice will be safer because you will stop to think if you are working in the best interests of the person you are supporting and if you are keeping them from harm. Safeguarding is about keeping vulnerable adults from any sort of harm, such as illness, abuse or injury. This means taking responsibility for the safety of
Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Yanilexy Rodriguez Physical Needs These include the most basic needs that are vital to survival, such as the need for water, air, food and sleep. Maslow believed that these needs are the most basic and instinctive needs in the hierarchy because all needs become secondary until these physiological needs are met. Safety Needs These include needs for safety and security. Security needs are important for survival, but they are not as demanding as the physiological needs. Examples of security needs include a desire for steady employment, health insurance, safe neighborhoods and shelter.
Principles for implementing duty of care (SHC 34) Unit 4222-304 Outcome 1 Understand how duty of care contributes to safe practice 1 Duty of care is the obligation to exercise a certain amount of care towards another person to make sure they are not hurt, treated unfairly or disadvantaged this includes. Keeping individuals safe, keep individuals free from harm, given choice, preferences. 2 Working to agreed standards which include protection from danger, harm and abuse. Clear reporting systems are in place when there are suspicions or disclosures of danger, harm and abuse. Outcome 2 Know how to address conflicts or dilemmas that may arise between an individual’s rights and the duty of care 1 Sometimes individuals may want to do something which could be a risk to their Health and safety.
A person centred approach to assessment will also help to ensure that the individual has the best possible quality of care for them which in turn will ensure that they will be given a good quality of life and be treated the way that they want to be treated. Again they will be treated with what is important to them in mind rather than what is important for them. 1.3 Compare the difference in outcomes that may occur between focusing on an individual’s strengths and aspirations rather than their needs only Outcomes from focusing on strengths and aspirations Outcomes from focusing on their needs only • An individual can choose what time they get up and ready for the day – the individual has some control over what time they get
These two theories can complement each other instead of compete as alternatives. Content theories deal with “the what” of motivation. They try to explain the forces which drive human behavior by fulfilling physiological and personal needs. They look at deficiencies because of the belief that if the need is met, people will not be further motivated to meet that need. Physiological needs include basics such as food, safety, and affiliation.
Having experience in a similar role is also more important when recruiting rather than when retaining because once you have employed staff they will become experienced in that role, whereas when you are recruiting it is a new start which could be more difficult to settle in and do the job efficiently. Another employability skill is effectiveness in meeting personal and team targets. This would be more effective for retention than recruitment because when you recruit someone you will find out how well they meet targets whereas when you are choosing who to keep, you will be able to compare the staffs that meet targets better. Giving and accepting criticism is more important than motivating and supporting your co-workers. This is because once you are able to take and give constructive criticism, then you will be able to support them, and if you cant give them feedback it will be impossible to be a supportive co-worker.
It is important for these individuals to seek help for the aftermath of the assault in order for them to return to a previously psychological healthy place. Another way to identify a client’s problems is to establish which needs are being met and which are not through the hierarchical perspective. This theory is best described by Abraham Maslow’s hierarchy of needs model. It was later proposed that these hierarchies of requirements could be divided into two categories: deficiency needs and being needs. This perspective says that if a person is unable to provide themselves with the physiological needs such as food or shelter, they would not be able to focus on other needs such as protection or even concentrate on the love and belonging
Needs at the bottom of the pyramid are necessary physical requirements such as water, food, warmth, and sleep. After people meet the lower-level needs of the pyramid, they can start moving on to the next level of needs. The next level of needs would be safety and security, and so on and so on until they reach the top of the pyramid. Physiological needs are the bottom of the pyramid. Physiological needs are the needs that are necessary for survival.
He explained that people are motivated in levels. First they have to be motivated to meet their basic needs and so on. He clarified these levels in a pyramid which he called Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, this is shown below. Physiological needs: These are the basic needs that every human needs in order to function properly and for their survival. For example a lack of air and water will eventually kill and individual.
