For encouraging good practices at HSC, there are differentprinciples and plan of action underpinning its practices. Principles at HSC are important for thecare home in delivering high quality treatment or support to the vulnerable. Present reportfocuses on understanding different principles of support to different individuals with learningdifficulties residing in the care home. However, the report will also focus on understanding theimpact of governmental policies, legislation as well as codes of practices on the organisationalpolicies and on their practices. Lastly, the report will also underpin different theories within theHSC so that they can render proper services in the premises. TASK 1- UNDERSTAND HOW PRINCIPLES OF SUPPORT AREIMPLEMENTED IN HSC PRACTICESa) Principles of support for the individuals with learning difficulties (1.1)There are different principles of support that a care worker may provide to their serviceusers and patients so that they can easily recover from the illness (Sheldon, 2011). Care UK havedifferent patients with different needs and requirements thus, for enabling proper care and helpcare worker must focus on principle of support to individuals with learning difficulties. Forsupporting the individuals those who possess learning difficulties care worker should focus ondifferent principles like confidentiality, respecting patients culture and values, encouraging anti-discrimination practices, providing equal treatment to all patients etc. the different principles ofsupport that care worker may provide to individuals are-Respecting diversity- Care worker rendering services in Care UK must focus onrespecting the diversity of patients with different learning difficulties so that they canemphasize on respecting different needs of the individual (Glasby, 2012). Thus, it alsoresults in providing fair and equal attention to every patient. For instance; patient havinghearing impairment must be provided with hearing equipments so that they can listen inthe proper manner. 3
Respecting different culture and values of patients- Another principle of support that careworker should concentrate at the time of rendering services to individuals with differentlearning difficulties include respecting different cultures and values of patients (Kaplanand et.al., 2010). For instance; UK features multicultural society thus care worker need torespect the culture and values of patients while rendering them proper services and care. Privacy- Another principles of support for the individuals with learning difficulties mustfocuses on privacy of the individual. Privacy is consider as key principle that focuses onunderpin the individual dignity. However, its the key duty of service provider to maintainand legally protect the information of the patients so that they can easily maintain theprivacy of their care workers. b) Procedure for protecting clients, patients and colleagues from harm (1.2)The care worker who are rendering services in Care UK need to protect the patients,clients and colleagues from the abuse and harm at the workplace (Bernardo and Lopes, 2011). Asper the NHS policy, it has been mandatory that care worker must follow proper procedure orprocess for protecting clients, patients and colleagues for the harm. The outlined process is asfollows:Assessing risk to self and other: The first step within the process for protecting theclients, patients and colleagues from the harm focuses on measuring the risk of harm toself and others so that result in arising the situation of harm and abuse at the workplaceget minimized. For instance; measuring risk to self and other within HSC will supportcolleagues as well as patients in knowing the risk factor which may harm them (Kitsonand et.al., 2013). Right of individuals: Another step ensures informing the right of all the individuals sothat they can protect themselves from the harm. Clients, patients and colleagues in theCare UK must know their duties to take risks. Informing relevant people about the risk: The last step in the procedure for protectingclient, patients and colleagues focuses on informing the relevant people regarding theidentified risks. For instance; clients and patients may inform their practitioner or doctorswho are in-charge of them regarding the identified risks. However, colleagues may reportdirectly to their superior authority regarding the identified risk (Grant and et.al., 2010). 4
