Person-centered values provide a foundation on which we can base and build our practice.

U N I T 7 1. Explain how and why person-centered values must influence all aspects of health and social-care work It is very important that we as care workers apply person-centered values in every aspect of the work we do. Some of the key values include: -Treating people as individuals. That is very important, because people we support they have their likes, dislikes, strength and personality. -Supporting people to exercise their rights-the rights of people are protected by law and in particular by the Human Rights Act 1998.Sixteen basic human rights have been incorporated into UK law.
It enables individual's to receive the care and support they need, in a person centred way and to be part of deciding the care that they will receive. Person centred care is good practice and helps to ensure that the correct and agreed care and support is given to each individual. No individual is the same and by having a person centred approach, it ensures that everyone is not treated the same, but in a way that respects their needs, wishes, preferences and values. Working to a person centred approach is essential in dementia care. It will help to maintain the individual's self-identity, self-respect and dignity.
Promote person centred approaches in health and social care unit 4222-305 1.1 There is no doubt that person-centred care values must influence all aspects of health and social care work. Health and social care should be based on person-centred values, and should be individualised as this is a law requirement (Human Rights Act 1998, Health and Social care Act 2012, Codes of practice for Social Care Workers, etc). If person-centre values that underpin all work in the health and social care sector are followed as they should be then all individuals should feel that and health and social workers ensure that: •the individual is supported in accessing their rights •the individual is treated has an individual •the individual is supported to exercise choice •ensure the individual have privacy if they want it •support the individual to be as independent as possible •treat all individuals with dignity and respect To ensure the above is followed will influence all aspect of health and social care it is important to ensure that all individuals are treated as such and person- centred care should ensure this. Evaluate the use of care plan in applying person-centred values Care plans are the basis for how social care and support services are delivered. The most important part of the plan is the outcome that the individual wants to achieve; the whole of the plan is geared to making progress towards these outcomes.
Aii How the duty of care affects the work of a social care worker The social care worker must: * Adhere to the set rule of standards laid out by the organisation and not work outside their capabilities as this could lead to negligence, incompetence or abuse and cause harm to the service user, colleagues or self. * Always act in the best interest of the service user and their care needs, giving choice and promoting independence whilst treating them with respect, whatever their choices and
These are some of the principles of care: * Individuality * Rights * Choice * Privacy * Independence * Dignity * Respect If person centred values, which should be at the heart of all work in the health and social care sector, are followed as they should be, then all individuals should feel that they are being supported in accessing their rights. Care plans are the basis for the delivery of social care and support. The most important part of the plan is the outcome that the individual wants to achieve, and the plan is geared towards making progress to realise these outcomes. One of the key ways in which care plans reflect person centred values is that the service provider does not structure services around what the providers do in order for individuals to receive services. But instead, are structured around outcomes – what the individual receiving the service will achieve.
Understand how duty of care contributes to safe practice Explain what it means to have a duty of care in own work role. All service users should be supported and enabled to live in an environment which is free from prejudice and safe from abuse. My responsibilities under the duty of care is to do everything reasonable within the definition of my job role to make this happen. A duty of care is a legal obligation imposed on a carer requiring that they adhere to a good quality and standard of care. It is my duty to take care of vulnerable adults and to ensure that their needs and well-being are looked after.
