Promoting Active Participation Research

In health and social care sector, health care professionals take into account four key ethical principles when providing service to the service users. The key ethical principles are justice, autonomy, beneficence and non-maleficence. In health and social care settings people must be treated fairly without being judgemental regardless of who they are or where they come from. Health care professionals must allow their service users choose the type of services or treatment they want and the professional should support them in getting quality care that will benefit their service users. Also, health care professional must not

It is important to identify individual’s specific and unique needs so that they can receive the best care possible. Taking a person centred approach is vital, treating a service user as an individual person and acknowledge that

3) As a care worker, you must promote the independence of service users while protecting them as far as possible from danger or harm.

Professional values are the foundation for practice; they guide interactions with client, colleagues, other professionals, and the public, by providing the framework for commitment to the Welfare of others. They are also belief or ideas to which an individual is committed and which are reflected in patterns of behavior. Institute of medicine (2000). In this article, I will define Altruism, Autonomy, Human Dignity, Integrity, and Social Justice. I will also identify how these values are demonstrated in our every day lives by other nurses and myself. According to Dougherty (1992) “Altruism is a concern

M1 -Describe how practitioners should apply values of care in health or social care service

For this I will treat people in my care with equity and respect their dignity at all times. I will make the care of people my first concern. I will work with others to protect and ensure safe health and wellbeing of those in my care, their families and the wider community. I will provide a high standard of practice and care at all times. I will always be open and honest, act with integrity and always will uphold the reputation of my profession.

To begin with the person is the centre of the plan, to be consulted with and their views must always come first: It should include all aspects of their care, and every professional should work together to provide it. (Leathard 2000) Autonomy refers to an individuals’ ability to come to his or her own decisions and requires nurses to respect the choices patients make concerning their own lives (Hendrick 2000).However Gillon Argues that the principle respect for autonomy may need some restriction, otherwise we may be morally obliged to respect an autonomous course of action with unthinkable consequences.( Gillon 1986) Every human being has an intrinsic value, they all have a right to well being, to self-fulfilment and to as much control over their own lives as is consistent with others (British Association of Social Workers 2002).Professional Judgement and patient preference cannot be suspended if practice is to be safe and effective rather than routine(DOH 2005) Alex had to attend this session as it was within his Timetable, how could it have been effective?, he was unhappy and

Everyone should be treated as an individual and their care should be designed around them, focussed on their needs and choices and not those of the business. These care plans should promote and encourage independence, empowerment and quality of care to ensure the service user receives the best care possible for them and also so they achieve their goals and enhance their abilities. Everyone has the right to make choices

This enables professionals to provide holistic support by giving the individials the right to make their own choices reguarding all aspects of their care. Therefore, the individual will be able to tell members of staff if they are unhappy about any part of the support they are receiving. This will then be investigated and an appropriate measure will be taken to make sure that the individual will be happy and cared for appropriately. The individual will be able to voice when they are happy and when they are not happy, they will also be able to voice their own opinions and preferences which will be taken into account when their care is being performed. The individial's care, wellbeing and preferences will always come first.For example, in a care

In this report I am going to explain factors that contribute to loss of independence and choice in health and social care. 1.1 Dependence individual with dementia have varying degrees of processing information and self-awareness. As the disease progresses the level of process and self-awareness will decline, this can result in them not realizing their own limitation in their abilities of doing things. Example they will feel restless, lost, confused and frustrated. Start forgetting to do thinks for themselves, they cannot even do their own shopping without the support of others they become dangerous to them self if they are living by their own.

Individual practitioners strive to create a positive care environment; they do this by making sure that they understand the care value base, the care value base is very important within a care setting as it helps to creating a positive care environment. Professionals should always follow

Empowerment means allowing individuals to take responsibility of their own life by making informed decisions. Empowerment of individuals is really important when planning a care plan for Martha, this allows her health staff at the residential care home to encourage her to make her own decisions and take control of her life. This will also help Martha builds self-esteem and confidence within herself.

To observe the trust values as a trainee assistant practitioner the six fundamental values I need to maintain in mind are Care, Compassion, Communication, Competence, Commitment, and Courage. NHS Commissioning Board (2012), the 6Cs were developed in 2012 as part of compassion in practice. The 6Cs encapsulate the values and behaviors of the essence to the legal transfer of high quality, compassionate care Beal, J (2014). Care is core business and that of our organisations and the care we deliver helps the individual person and improves the health of the whole community. WUTH (2012) Caring defines us and our work. A person receiving care expects it to be right for them, consistently, throughout every stage of their life Beal, J (2014). Compassion is how care is given through relationships based on empathy, respect and dignity. I believe that nursing is an occupation consisting of professional individuals that exhibit and express

I feel the Engagement strategies are important. Building a relationship with the client will help the client to open up to me as a counselor. People don’t care what you know until they know that you care. When a counselor proves to the client that they are concerned about them and that they want to know about their culture, the client will become to open and begin to trust the counselor. It is important for the counselor to gain the knowledge ahead of time and continue to research the culture of their client. As the counselor I need to research the culture of all my students. I try to ask them about what they believe and then listen to what they are telling me. I want them to know I care. Before we meet again I read about their culture and
