Work in a person centred way for health and social care
Topics Include: Importance of person-centred values, Promoting wellbeing, and Supporting individuals to maintain self-esteem
Working in a person centred way means, at its heart, thinking about the patient as more than a bundle of needs. A patient has values and principles.
They will also have intensely personal approaches – things which they love and things which annoy them. And they will have immediate needs for comfort which may go beyond the medical care pathway.
Thinking about those personal aspects is a tried-and-tested way to minimise pain and discomfort of the people in your care.
All care and support should be delivered using person centred principles. This course explains what this means and gives examples throughout of how to achieve it. It considers physical and emotional wellbeing and how to increase these, while reducing discomfort and distress.
