Another goal for Sarah could be her bed sores as she is in bed all day she is getting him, Sarah is in bed all day due to her mobility problems by getting her to walk more often this would help not only get rid of her bed sores but also improve her mobility. In order for her to obtain this goal Sarah would need help from her GP, also her nurse to help her move about when getting in and out of bed. Ruby- a realist goal for ruby would be for her to attend all her physiotherapy.

The importance individual service user has the right to know what support is available to them, we support them to help to find out what they are entitled to dependant on there support and learning disabilities. Many local authorities have changed services from residential care to supported housing for people with learning disabilities. Without doing financial planning for a service user they might not be able to manage to live in the own homes.
It is important to follow the agreed care plan because it forms the basis of what is considered best interest for the individual, it is unique to them and details their needs and preferences. All care givers to the individual
I am currently on placement at the Fred Paton Day Care Centre which is a Centre for elderly service users. My role in the facility is to provide support / assistance when required and to help engage service users in activities that are provided by the staff within the organisation. At present I am working with a 62 year old male who has recently suffered from a bad stroke and another recent mini stroke which has left him with limited mobility making some tasks harder for him.

The review process should have the same result as the above and should ensure that changes are monitored, progress mapped and new goals and targets are set, it is imperative that the care plan gives a true and current reflection of the individual in order for them to receive the correct support.
Establish a Plan of Care for each patient assigned, integrate the patient and family members in the plan of care, and have the ability to modify plan as needed.
Also conferring to (pearson,2016), individuals within health and social care settings should be encouraged to make choices, and to take control over their lives. For example, service users choosing which activities they would like to participate in when they are in a residential care setting. (pearson,2016) also suggests, that all service users using health and social care services have the right to select, either independently or with assistance, a range of options and activities which are specific to them and their needs. An advocate can help to ensure that choice is promoted by representing the serviced users and explaining what is important to them, and not what other workers think is important. For instance, a young woman with learning

This assignment on understanding specific needs will look into the perceptions that people have of health, disability, illness and behaviour in a health and social care context.

It is very important that before Audrey is transitioned to the new setting she is well prepared in a way that guarantees that she will stay safe in the rehabilitation setting as her action level develop and increases. Days before Audrey’s discharge, interventions will be implemented.

It will help her endure the actual transition and likely to be successful in handling the demands of rehabilitation. Second, 2 days before her discharge, she will be set on longer acting oral or transdermal pain medication to ensure that pain is successfully managed during her transfer and therapy.

We will support Helen by discussing and setting up a health and fitness plan as well as creating a daily living skills routine. This will benefit Helen holistically as her physical needs will be met as well as her medical needs. According to (www.nhschoices.co.uk) most individuals with Down’s syndrome suffer from heart and gut problems. The professionals will support her holistically in signing her up for gyms and teaching her how to eat healthier and take care of her body, in order to prevent further heart problems and worsening any gut complications that
Local authorities have been duty bound to carry out assessments of need for community care services with individuals ever since the NHS and Community Care Act 1990. This is where the “needs led approach” came in. Legislation and policy from the last 50 years has shaped outcome-based practice. In the 1960’s and 1970’s the dissatisfaction of the care system saw the start of the civil rights movement. In the 1980’s and 1990’s, the service user was starting to be put at the centre of the decision making process and in 1986, the Social Security Act came in to force. This act brought about the move to an Income Support and Disabled Persons Act which focused on the assessment of needs for every disabled person. From 1990’s to 2003, choice was at the
