Person Centred Care
• Supporting preferences, wishes and needs
• Supporting privacy and dignity
• Supporting others to make informed choices
about the services they receive
Paired Work – 20 minutes
• Using the books from last week and laptops
work in pairs to:
• Find the meaning of one aspect of person
centred care.
• Analyse the benefit of this in relation to Tony
Nicklinson.
Protection from risk of harm
• Risk is part of everyday life but becoming an
increasing concern in health and social care.
• Predictable and preventable risks are
avoidable and should be avoided.
• This will be through the use of Risk
Assessments and care plans.
• Balancing risk against individual choice.
Protection from risk of harm
• The CQC regard this as a key factor for
inspection and concern
• Outcome 7: Safeguarding people who use
services from abuse People should be
protected from abuse and staff should
respect their human rights.
• There are 12 outcomes in total

How to assess risk
• Assessing risk to self and others
• Right of individuals to take risks
• Informing relevant people about identified
risks
How do you do this?
Example
• An older person continually loses her balance
and falls over. They have injured themselves
on two occasions now.
• Restricting their moving
– Although this may keep them self it would effect
their independence
– Overprotection means their mobility will
deterioate
Questions to consider
• Does the individual have appropriately
supportive shoes?
• Are there any walking aids that would offer
support?
• Is the environment safe?
• Are there any unnecessary obstacles that
hinder mobility?
Safeguarding
Not just physical risks but also
emotional
Task 1
• Your line manager has asked you to participate in the
induction process for new employees, by producing and
delivering a presentation, on the implementation of
principles of support. You may refer to your own setting,
whilst maintaining full confidentiality, with regard to names
and contexts.
• Prior to the delivery of your presentation, you must submit
the following:
– Research notes
– A bibliography of all sources consulted
– Written permission from your setting, for the use of any
documentation.
The presentation will need to
include:
• An explanation on how the principles of support are
applied to ensure that individuals are cared for in
health and social care practice
• Outline the procedure for protecting clients, patients,
and colleagues from harm
• Analyse the benefit of following a person-centred
approach with users of health and social care services
• Explain ethical dilemmas and conflict that may arise
when providing care, support and protection to users
of health and social care services
Presentations
• Why do we do them?
• Are there any benefits?
• Why not write an essay?
I had originally planned to carry out these
presentations on Saturday 25th Workshop.
