Description
What’s covered
The phrase ‘Person-Centred Care’ was first used in the 1940s to advocate a wholistic approach to care recipients. This means getting to know the individual before adjusting the care as much as possible to meet their unique requirements. Person centred care is now a key principle outlined in current legislation and it plays an important part in the standards that they set out which must be followed by all care professionals working in this country.
This course discusses person-centred approaches to care and support, along with how these apply to an adult social care setting. The course begins by defining person-centred care and outlining its historical background. After that, it analyses the principles of person-centred care and explains why care should be as individually tailored to each service user as possible. A summary of care plans, daily reports, and are discussed along with the significance of getting consent.
