INTRODUCTION
The health and social care services are provided by hospitals, clinics and health care homes.
This report is showing the ethical, legislative and regulation practices of these service providers.
The discussion is done on health standards with social roles and responsibility of health care society
(Code of Human Research Ethics. 2010). Further the practical and theoretical approaches to deal
with patients and clients are mentioned in this report. Various case studies are analyzed with
reference to health care society and suggestions are cited for effective health science. In order to
understand the diseases and their respective treatments, two case studies are studied and analyzed in
this report (Christensen, Grossman and Hwang, 2009). Here the first case study is observed for
identifying information regarding patient and treatment practices regarding his deceases.

TASK 1
AC 1.1 Principles of support to Bob in residential care
The supporting principles for taking care of Bob by residential care are discussed in the
following points:
 Equality: The patients should be treated on the grounds of equality. Bob is suffering from
physical and mental deceases like viabilities, stroke and depression. Such patient should be
treated as per Equality Act 2010 in which race, age, gender, religion are not considered
while treating his health condition.(What is the Person Centred Approach?, 2013).
 Dignity: The care taker of Bob should consider the social and personal needs of the patient
in mind. In order to promote dignity and respect of Bob while treatment care worker need to
pay special attention on his knowledge and behaviour. The emotional and medical support
needs to be provided to Bob for recovering his illness(Cohen and Crabtree, 2008).
 Confidentiality: It is one of the important principle of healthcare support for keeping
patients information confidential. As per Confidentiality act of UK for HSC says that all the
personal and medical information of a patient needs to be recorded in hospital's secured
database system. The confidentiality of this information is prime aim of this Act. The patient
should be inform before sharing of any kind of details from HSC (Luoma, Martin and
Pearson, 2014). It is considered as a offence if the information regarding client is given to
any unauthorized person.
 Privacy: The care worker of Bob need to consider privacy while treating Bob at residential
care. This would help in building the trust of Bob in care worker. The emotional support
help the client in speedy recovery and reduce frustration and suicidal thoughts.
AC 1.2 Procedure and evaluation of interpersonal working of HSC services
The health care home should take care of protection from deceases and threats. The methods
and techniques are like blowing alarm, caring by a permanent nursing staff or camera monitoring of
the patient room (Munro, 2005).
These techniques can be implemented as below discussion. The alarm needs to be centrally
placed and a power switch should be in rich of client or the room attender. The emergency backup
should be there for critical cases apart from the professional staff. The vital drugs should be kept in
medical store or the health care home store for immediate treatment or drug supply. Whistle and
electric bells are used to inform the medical control team (Whitehead, 2012).
