on personal values
Personal values can be determined to be the skills, ability, capabilities, trust factor, belief,
etc. It is important to make sure that there are certain set of skills that are possessed by
individuals, only then it becomes possible deliver high quality services (Blais, Hayes and Erb,

As per the type of culture that is being followed in Romania, people do not rust unknown
persons. For this purpose, it is important for me to have type of nature in which I have effective
communication so that I will be able to develop trust among individuals. The rate of interaction
that Romanian have is low as it developed upon the time that is being spend ( Stiglitz and
Rosengard, 2015). As per the experience that is developed with different type of people who
were provided with care related services.

As per the type of legislations that has to be followed, it is essential to make sure that safe
practices that are followed and dignity in care should be promoted. As per the type of values I

the policies, all the information that is provided by patient need to be effectively considered and
only the person who is authorised should be considered (Makai, Brouwer and Nieboer, 2014). As

per the procedure, it is important as a care worker to follow the instructions that are given by
professional and work as per the requirement of patient. There is negative impact over values
when these are not effectively followed.

In order to reduce the rate of tension and conflicts type of situation. It is important to take
time to understand the main cause due to which conflict situation has raised (Dransart, Voélin
