INTRODUCTION
The person centred health and care is a very new emerging topic which is effecting every
persons life. After a certain age and time humans become enable to make their own decisions
and lack the confidence. They become weak which makes it impossible for them to take care of
them selves. This health care plan is to give an extensive support back so they can gain all
decision making powers back. When any person is sick they become helpless and dependent
over the other this program helps them renovate themselves again. The following file consists of
multiple case scenarios and through it several methods and issues are discussed.
MAIN BODY
Task-1
Case scenario: Mabel is a 92 years old widow who loves alone, she is sick with arthritis
Esophageal dysphagia due to which she was hospitalised recently because of decrease in her
weight. P.E.G is used, being in hospital is making her anxious and she seeks to leave hotel as
soon as possible. A meeting was held to provide a health and care plan and provide proper
support(Aoun, Hogden and Kho, 2018).
1.Provide importance of persons centred values in industry of health & care.
In this era health and care has become a very crucial topic to discuss and take care,
person-centered care is necessary for every individual. This involves to consider basic thing
every patient needs but is ignored due to protocols. Its known as putting patients needs first and
listen to what patients need apart from their ailment and disability. This area is accepting and
changing with developing society, this will give better quality care. Providing this facility for
Mabel will give her access to live in her house and get treatment their also, applying this method
will increase living standards of the patients (Barbosa and et. al., 2015) .
Person-centered care is one of the main attributes principles out of 13 standards created
for betterment. This method is administered by care quality commission which is governed by
country. This term means to completely devote towards patients and keeping the best utmost care
of them. This is giving them respect and importance and let them decide what seeks them peace
and happiness at such stage of life. All decision taken in procedures related to their health is not
in-putted before their approval in any procedure.

Their are basically 4 main principles which are to be followed during person centred care
procedures which are mentioned below:
 Treating every individual with passion and respect: most any patience misses is to be
independent of his/her choice and decision making power. This principles seeks every
person to grant and provide their wishes(Fazio and et. al., 2018).
 Give correct treatment, care & support: to gather correct information one shall meet other
.This helps in case of having several patients and having every persons schedule in check.
This can be better than patience not very
 Give personalised care and treatment: Here people are given personalised treatment
according to their wished and the main purpose of this is to make them gain some
confidence. as according to their health issues generally people recover early through
these methods (Hagan, Sulik and Lieberman, 2016).
 Let patient realised their own weakness and strengths to make them independent: giving
such unit care makes the patient realise their mistake and the strengths of their body. It
lets them choose what they seek. This will help them have their own capabilities and this
will make them feel to have control of their lives.
Importance of person-centered care: it helps them have more better care levels and this can bring
several aspects of things to which they feel cared loved and independent in decision making.
IMPORTANCE OF PERSON CENTERED APPROACH
This person centred approach is important so that the whole focus can be put over the patient and
his all categorises shall be at priority for the practitioners. TO EXAPLAIN IT BRIEFLY THEIR
ARE FEW POINTS MENTIONED BELOW:
 To make them feel more comfortable and confident while receiving services from
practitioner.
 To full fill their social , emotional and practical needs.
 These people can support to directly communicate with needs and wants of person.
 It helps them to be more independent.
2. The procedure of developing such care.
Their are several challenges which have to be faced by the national humans security this
concept comes under the commission which have to be seeming issues since the number of

people to help are increasing at a rapid level and several people in the current era are living with
several disabilities. The person centred care and social care services was developed to help
certain people and give them main important privilege so that no other system shall work in
progress. The need of having such provision was much needed and the concept was created to
help and treat people and make them have a happier lifestyle in return (Miles and Asbridge,
2017).
3. Most common things faced during such approach of persons centred care.
The most common things which are faced by both the sides is that they have to be well
coordinated and well known or accompanied to enjoy this experience (Miles and Asbridge,
2016). Generally people do not express what they seek and due to this procedures is left without
any results. Its very important for people to have the following:
 people should express and conclude their experience with full proper explanations
 the people should understand basic levels and have a understanding.
 Results are not always effective as this procedure takes time for people to understand and
gain confidence again back in life (Kim and Park, 2017).
Providing some acts to help out this person centred relationship are mentioned below:
The Equality Act 2010: This act gave certain principles which helped in given certain importance
to equality.
Equal Pay Act, 1970: This treat everyone equal in commercial business structure and helped
worm to get same pay scale as men.
Sex discrimination Act, 1975: This restricted people in knowing their baby's gender and kill it in
case case a girl or boy which they did not expect and also because of various reasons as well.
Task-2
4.Briefly describe equality, diversity and discrimination in health and social care.
The following is mentioned in the power-point presentation.

Task-3
7. Skills & personal qualities required for developing relationship in given scenario.
This term has to be properly explained in the fact that there are several skills which are
needed to have this things done. One person to become trained in helping people should can help
to seek proper care and help to people who need it the most. Some of the major qualification one
requires is to have the following qualities and skills mentioned below:
 properly coordinated: such people should always be coordinated and organised in the
work that no person shall face any discomfort or any helplessness while staying for the
procedure (Mezzich and et. al., 2017).
 Patience: one shall always have calm and cool mind as things can get a little agitated and
some can experience discomfort due to continues bugging and irritated doctors to treat.
 Making them confident: this should be executed that the sole purpose for them to make
this changes is to keep them back on toes and let them take charge of their lives
again(Kogan, Wilber and Mosqueda, 2016).
8. Explain promotion of independence of an individual in health and social care.
This is actually the main source to which the concepts work in too much coordinated and
collaborated in the work spam of time that it is very irregular vto follow or continue any such
matters. The heading of this treatment is to make the person fully independent in the end of the
methods ends.
9. Ensuring privacy and dignity of individuals.
In this process it is very important to remember the fact that all the people who are
getting them treated do not seek to let other people know about their issues or things. This
treatment lets the person be total unidentified and does not let any person seek information about
them. It is regulated by government to protect them and give them the correct statement in the
privacy and dignities of every individual (Mezzich and et, al., 2016).
Task-4
10. Self assessment, a reflection of case scenario.
I believe as an manager analysis of such certain conditions it is very important for the
people to understand the importance of this subject. It is unconditionally very important and has

started to repeat and several people are going through this face (Wu and et. al., 2017). Like in the
scenario maple does not seek to be dependent at her daughter even in this age. This shows that
people still believe to live more and explore more life left in them. The sole purpose was to
explain the importance and need of such treatment. Person centred treatment is providing
humans for the first time to explore and have command of their lives in the most crucial stages of
their lives (Lines, Lepore and Wiener, 2015).
CONCLUSION
The main consistent power source of this whole file is to understand the importance of
health and care in world. Their are several provisions which protect and help several people to
gain their lives back. Person centred approach was introduced for betterment of humans and
giving them support and independence in society. This lead to recovery of any person more early
and quick. This case study helps understand things in more brief terms and workings.
