Unit 305 Outcome 1) 1) Person centred values ensure that each individual resident receives adequate care based on their personal wants and needs. Person centred values make sure that the care is planned around a specific individual and that they are at the heart of every decision. Throughout a health and social care setting being able to demonstrate person centred care can involve professionals, families, the individual and carers. Aspects of daily care should involve person centred values because each resident is different and will need to be treated as an individual. As a carer I demonstrate person centred values by relating to what each resident would like, what care they need, what assistance they will accept and treating each resident as a separate person but at the same time treating everyone equally.
These values should underpin all work in the health and social care sector when they are followed as they should be then all individuals should be able to feel that, and health and social workers should ensure that: all individuals are treated with dignity and respect the individual is supported in accessing their rights the individual is treated as an individual the individual is supported to exercise choice ensure that the individual has privacy when they want it support the individual to be as independent as possible Person centred values provide a foundation on which we can base and build our practice.

For the purpose of this assignment I will refer to the patient as Mary who’s care I was involved with whilst on placement on a medical ward. I have changed her name to protect her confidentiality which complies with Section 5 of the NMC Code of Professional Conduct (2002). I have chosen to write about Mary’s circumstances as I feel strongly that there appeared to be a lack of support between her social and medical needs. I have gained Mary’s consent to base this essay on her individual circumstances after explaining my intentions to her and assuring her confidentiality. I will focus this assignment on Mary’s two main problems which were her stump wound and the pain this caused, and the problems Mary was experiencing transferring.
