But inrecent time, life of the people and this concept has changed a lot. In earlier days people use tovisit hospitals as and when needed. But in today's time it has become regular habit of people todo routine check ups. Health can be described as the state of complete physical, mental andsocial well-beingness of a person. A person cannot be said healthy only when he is not ill. Illness is not the only reason due to which a person's health affects. According to WHOit is said that health can be regarded as something which details up the state of complete physicaland mental well being of a person (Aveyard, 2014). Being healthy can be termed as staying awayfrom any kind of infections and also maintaining proper hygiene so that future illness could beavoided.Disability is defined as mental or physical condition of a person that makes him not to actnormally. This restricts them to take full participation in social events organised in hissurroundings. So it is not termed as a health issue rather it is defined as the interaction that isbuilt between individuals and society. Apart from this Illness can be considered as thing that1
restricts a person to perform regular routine works. It can lead to permanent or temporarysituation. In British sense illness can be defined as something that stays with the person for aperiod of time. This has major impact on both mind and body of an individual.Behaviour of a person can be defined as the situation where a person shows a kind ofconduct and reacts as per the circumstances that are present in front of him. Here person takesnecessary steps so as to eliminate sickness or disease from which his body is suffering. So it isimportant for the family of Mr Holland park to get themselves aware about the importance ofhealth care and social care.1.2 How perceptions of specific needs has changed over time in care homes.There has been change in the way people look and work to fulfil their needs and desires.Mental illness has come across a long way that breaks down all perceptions andmisunderstanding that are being developed. Beliefs and feelings of people are changing on a regular interval that makes themto pursue disease faster (Bates, and et. al., 2014). It raises certain problems in human body. These diseases then leads to arising certain problems such as abuse, exploitation,etc. and if these problems are not considered on timely basis then it may lead to more seriousissue.It can be checked from Mr Holland Park's case who is suffering from Dementia. Thisdisease that occurs in human body which effects mental and hearing power of the people.According to a study around 35% people in the world suffered from this disease in the age of 40-90 years.Some patients were satisfied from the services of the Trust and some of them were not.The artwork activities conducted by the Trust removes feeling of discrimination from the minedof the patients and make them to interact with each other. The feeling of disgrace and oppressionare removed from the mind of the patient by treating them in a good manner and by motivatingthem, also it can be done by giving the patients special attention and politeness while talkingwith them so that they may give more and proper information related to their disease which willhelp them to cure more early.In earlier days society used to permit stigma and discrimination. Individuals used to avoidand stigmatize person with illness and disabilities. But on the contrary stigmatization anddiscrimination has been reduced nowadays due to continuous awareness in society. 2
