Unit SHC36 Promote person centred approaches in health and social care 2.2 How do you use care plans when applying person centred values A person and their needs should be at the centre of the support process. A carers role is to make sure that a person has every opportunity to state how they wish their needs to be met. This is especially important when the issues regarding the person are difficult or of a sensitive nature. Person centred working is about putting people in control of their lives, whether it be a new service user or a person who has been “stuck in the system” for many years. Most places will have a format (usually a care plan) for identifying needs such as: * What they are able to do independently * Personal Care * Nutritional Needs * Daily Life * Choice and Control * Risks * Medications * Work, leisure and learning * Physical and mental health It is important that everything is included in the care plan.
Case Study 2 Civ) a range of approaches to help indivual make informed choices can be creating flash cards and other communication aids to help a person to understand the questions t is all about furnishing them with all the facts so they can make an informed choice. Cv) Different ways to help an indivual challenge decisions made by others such as medical practitioners, social workers and family members is to knowing key working skills, ensuring the service user understands letters or appointments accompanying them to appointments where you have gained permission to do so.Also to stand your ground for those less assertive due to age/learning disability or infirmity. Always make things clear as you go along to make sure you don’t confuse or mislead anyone and always respect their wishes in their best interest. Cvi) Possible consequences if the person views of others such as medical practitioners, social workers and family members are allowed to influence the choices
The Hotel Model is were the people with learning disability are treated as guest or patients. Everything is done for them by the support worker or carer. This model tends to exclude service user from making choices and decisions about how they want to be treated and cared for. a) promoting independence: Active support promotes independence in many ways. Everyone need to be supported and more so people with learning disabilities.
Care-plans are very specific to the individual and you need as much information about them to be able to assess the needs of the person involved. Find out what they are they able to do for themselves and what can we do to support them and aide independence. What sort of support do they have from family and friends, what hobbies do they have and what are their likes and dislikes. They may need your support because of ill health so you need to know all about their medical history and what medication they are on. How their sight, hearing and speech is, are they able to communicate?
Unit 4222-201Introduction to communication in health social care or children's and young people's settings Outcome 1Understanding why communication is important in the work setting 1.1: People communicate for different reasons, to portray their feelings, emotions, pain, fear, anger, joy, love and opinions. The communication could be professional (formal), or personal (informal). It is important within a social work environment that information is recorded, as it may be called upon for legal reasons. All communications are confidential, and on a “need to know”, basis. Communication between colleagues is essential, so that it ensures a continuity of care for the client, and all staff are aware of the current needs of the client.
Unit 1 1.1 People communicate for different reasons, to portray their feelings, emotions, opinions, etc. The communication could be formal, or informal, it is important within a social work environment that information is recorded, as it may be called upon for legal reasons. The way to record things that may occur are by the PRF forms that we may be filling out or possibly onto a WMAS 54 incident form. All communications are confidential, and on a “need to know”, basis. Communication between colleagues is essential, so that it ensures a continuity of care for the patient and all staff are aware of the current needs for the patient.
Also most of us have different emotions and feelings that we need to express and we may do this through communicating with others. By talking about what we need, wish or want is important in order for people to understand what to do if you’re feeling worried or concerned about a situation. When in a situation we are unsure of or not knowing what to do we communicate in order to receive support from others, or we may be on the other hand be supporting others with a difficult situation, by reassuring people. Explain how effective communication affects all aspects of working in an adult care setting Having effective communication in a work place which is based in a care setting is very important. Service users and their relatives need to be able to trust you in order for them to have confidence in you and to make sure you can care for them.
As humans, we tend to take these signs and symbols for granted. We all need to learn what certain symbols mean, and how they can help us get through situations, or just the day ahead. Our own reflection about these meanings, contain symbolic thinking on many levels as well. We learn how to reflect upon these meanings, and how they can help us out spiritually and mentally. Even so, symbols can often be misunderstood.
Barriers come in many forms, such as when key persons are doing observations and planning. The parents may lack in confidence to give any suggestions or feel that their contribution isn’t worth making at all; they may also not want to get involved in this. However practitioner should let the parents of the child take charge on the suggestion making, instead of the practitioners taking charge. This allows the parents to feel valued and respect being given such an important role, building the parents confidence as their suggestions have be taken into
In case there’s any safeguard issue, we should follow the safeguarding procedures which may involve breaching confidentiality but then again only if/ when necessary and only the people who need to have information will do so. * Children’s wishes and feelings: There will be times when it won’t be appropriate to observe a child, and during these times the best thing to do is to step aside and carry on with it on another opportunity. If a child is upset, if a child doesn’t want to be assessed for any reason, or basically if a child is not on a good mood, then the observation would be pointless anyway as it won’t be accurate, and we obviously aim for the welfare and wellbeing of children and we won’t want to be a negative factor by pushing a child or forcing a situation that is unsettling for them. * Ethnic, linguistic and cultural background/ disability or specific requirements: Obviously if we want to get an accurate idea of a child’s development we need to take into account the child as an individual, and every individual has a background and has their own specificities which
