credits authors for factual statements. A reference page is included at the end of the article for researchers to use as needed.

Given the importance of the housing issue to the service user, I had to be aware of how I spoke with him by using sensitive language and showing concern but also through trying to get the important issues across (Thompson, 2002).

Why it is so important to respond to an individual's reactions when communicating in dementia care Responding to individual's verbal and non verbal reactions adequately is important because this way we promote quality of services, create trust and feeling of empathy and and are able apply organisation's equality and diversity policies. In order to achieve above mentioned goals, firstly we have to decode individual's verbal or non verbal message. Failing to do so we risk to cause confusion, misunderstandings or leave the service user with anxiety, frustration or bad feelings. In this report I will give several examples from my own and my colleagues practice. My colleague worked with a man who had a very poor speech following a stroke.
Rogers also believed that people are inherently good and creative. However, he thought that people could become destructive when a poor self concept (how one sees oneself in comparison to others) or external constraints override the valuing process. Rogers thought that for a client to experience therapeutic change, certain conditions had to be present within the relationship. These conditions he called “The Core Conditions”, which were empathy, congruence (genuineness) and unconditional positive regard (respect). When Rogers talked about empathy, he meant the therapist should continually try to understand the client from their point of view (enter into their world to get a sense of how it feels)
In this lens it is taught to focus on the processes, and the systems needed for an ethical organization. The difference between the first two lens discussed is that the Right and Responsibility Lens, and the Results lens focused on the individual, the Relationship lens focuses on the community. However in the relationship lens it has a few more concerns, such as how to protect the basic liberties of all people. These liberties are broken down into rights such as; The right to notice, The right to voice, not to veto, The right to have contracts honored. The Relationship Lens helped influence my decision by giving us a process by which basic liberties can be protected.
1.1 Explain the importance of meeting an individual’s communication needs. Every individual has the right to communication as the Human Rights Act (1998) lists the freedom of expression as well as other rights relating to communication. As a support worker I have a moral obligation as well as adhering to the standards, codes of practice, guidelines, morals and law that govern my practice to ensure that communication needs are met. If an individual’s communication needs are not met then all aspects of their daily life can be affected such as not being able to communicate you are well and get help. This could be more severe in the case of abuse whereby the individual can’t communicate effectively to alert others if they are being abused and can be vulnerable to abuse.
In my managerial role, I have to promote equality and uphold individuals equality of opportunity, individual rights and choice, their privacy, individuality, independence, dignity, respect, promote empowerment, equality of care, confidentiality and their wishes and needs. I must show how I respect diversity and accept other individual’s differences. Some of the ways I can show this are: • Complaint procedure –When a Client wants to make a complaint I have explained to them the procedure, in their preferred communication, and supported them in how to complete one, given feedback about the result and maintained confidentiality.

As a manager I explain him that the home has a complaint procedure and explain and help him complete a complaints form.
It is very important for mental health provides to be aware of the Asian American culture in order to address their mental health needs. It is their responsibility to understand the culture and backgrounds of the community they are treating, so that education and teaching will be effective. “Cultural self-awareness is perhaps the most difficult-to-learn aspect of cultural competency because it requires a degree of openness, vulnerability, and ability to experience a wide range of potentially uncomfortable feelings” (Hwang,
