values as well as preferences of people. Beliefs along with the preferences of the person make
changes according to the culture which Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. Follow (Brody and
Hadar, 2011). A a employee of the care home, I have to get the information about the disease of
the patient and according to that I have to provide the services to them which helps in providing
the satisfaction to them. Personal values changes according to the needs or culture and on the
basis of that they have to provide services. The principles of support for working in health and
social care are different and they are designed by the centres in the whole world. As I am care
worker so I have to provide best services to the services users and there is a bit difference
between the personal values and the principles of support of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. In
the business entity, principles are generate from the humanity or equality and this is based upon
the needs whether it is medical services or health and social care. The staff members have to
provide the proper support with my skills and capabilities. My personal values helps in fulfilling

the needs. While doing work in Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. needs convert into unconditional

whole process as it helps in providing the proper satisfaction to patients and for the collaboration
of employees along with the leadership, engaging staff is the important factor (Dopp and et. al.,

Culture and experiences include the family life and ethnicity. As I am the person who are
working in the care home and providing proper care to the service users and these are depend on
My education having a great impact on the health and social care because when I have a
knowledge about this field then only I can provide the services to the patients according to their
diseases or health problems (Examples of Employee Development Activities, 2017). If the

If I am providing the services related to health and social care then I have to understand the
emotions and the problem of the affected person. Along with this I have to do proper care time to
time so that patient can not face any issue. As the employees of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd.

2011). The employees of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. have to use holistic approach so that
they can provide the valuable service to their patient. In the company, ethical values are
compulsory for the success and growth.

In the field of given topic care there are many impact by the new developments on the
work of the organisation. Changes in laws, policies, priorities and research methodology is also a

factor that impacts on the working and functioning (Forte and Flores, 2014). There are different
legislations which Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. can use:
Health and Social Care Act, 2012- This act was introduced in the UK Parliament. It made an
extensive reworking of the NHS working. It is basically divided into 12 parts-:

provide the some suggestions related to the acts introduced changes and new development
strategies the work at personal level will get influenced. Changes may affect positively and
negatively in an individual. Like a person with good skills of creativity can provide better
services in a qualitative way and vice-versa (The difference between personal and professional

related to the health and social care.
Specific: Strategies must be specific in which they should know what they actually wants to
achieve through such strategies and how they will attain such objectives. I have to improve my
team work, communication skills and to be honest with my work and also with my team
members.
Measurable: Targets should always be measurable so that leaders can easily communicate them
to his or her subordinates. All the work is to be measured in a regular time so that in achieving
goals they can not face any problem.
Achievable: Only in case the work is measurable then only the employees can attain it as in case
when work to be done is not quantifiable then employees working in Signature Senior Lifestyle
Ltd. may gets confused over their duties (Kalén and et. al., 2010). The goals which are related to
communication skill should be achieved.
Realistic: Strategies drafted by the managerial personnels and leaders of Signature Senior
Lifestyle Ltd. and objective behind such work should be relevant with the operations of business.
Time bound: Time factor in anything is very important as if a person will not work as per the

2.4Effectiveness of a development plan
By the evolution plan, company have to measure the effectiveness so that they can not
face any problem in providing the services to their patients. Communication artistiry and
decision making also to be entered in the development plan. As I have a knowledge about the
work, so I have to maintain all the records. All the goals is to be developed in a appropriate time
so that all the services to the patients are to be provided in a proper manner.
TASK 3
3.1 Different professional relationship in helath care
Employees of the business entity have to maintain the working relationship as it is a
nature of professional relationship and they are working in a team with their colleagues and
having a common goals and to achieve that they are working. Developing and maintaining
relationships is central to improve the outcomes for the individual person and their families
(Kumari, 2011). They have to create best environment in which people have to feel their need
and fulfil them and this requires the integrity, honesty along with the skills. Along with this they
have to maintain personal relationship also with their friends or family members within the social
groups. In a professional relationship in Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. service users have to pay
for the services which are attaining from the workers. As I am the member of multidisciplinary
teams, the relationship between health workers ends and when the service user does not need
help so that they can maintain lifetime responsibility. Client worker relationship taken a
important place in the health and care and personal relationship can occur anywhere and in any
place. Along with this the workers of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. is the responsible person so
that they can maintain a professional relationship. The manager of company should provide and
conduct training and development session so that they can provide best services to their patients
(López‐Pastor, Monjas and Manrique, 2011). But in maintaining the personal relationship no
such training is required. The workers of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. have to provide the
accurate services and give proper care time to time so that they can not face any problem. Along

with this they have to follow proper rules and regulations so that service users can not face any
issues.
3.2 Personal effectiveness in promoting rights of person
As I am a care worker, there are several rights for the individual person and they are
legal, social along with the ethical principles of the freedom and entitlement. Every person and
company having their on rights which are included as a fundamental normative rules which helps
in providing the best services to the service users. In the Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd., many
principles which helps in providing support and are used by the employees like respecting
individual person, their rights, choice as well as independence. Along with this employees have
to provide respect and partnership as well as equal opportunities and values. These principles
succour in working of the staff members with the patients which aid in promoting and respecting
the individual rights (McArdle and Coutts, 2010). To improve the knowledge, I have to
understand the legislation of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. so that they can protect and respect
the service users rights as well as choices. Legislation which can are used by Signature Senior
Lifestyle Ltd. includes safeguarding, Human Rights Act, 1998 etc. I am having the knowledge,
information, advice, ability as well as authority to perform a task in a appropriate manner and
attain the aim. In the business entity, I am having a opportunity which I have to grasp as I am
giving the services to the adult person with the learning disabilities and I have to do work in the
other projects which is that children having the disabilities. When the members trust on me then
only I can provide the best services or in doing care of adults and children. Signature Senior
Lifestyle Ltd. can use the medical model as this model by which company members can find
illness as well as disability which helps in attaining the result for improving the physical
condition. This model helps in managing the illness or disability which resolves in identifying
the illness (McNiff, 2010).
3.3 How issues should resolve in professional relationship
Employees of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. have to do work in the proper environment
and have to provide the proper care to their patients which helps in attaining their aims.
Multidisciplinary teams are teams which having some professions who do work with each other
and by that they can provide the proper care. Teams consist different members which having
different knowledge and the different professional backgrounds that have different areas of the
expertise (Moon, 2013). In the teams, staff members have to provide proper health to their

patients. Multidisciplinary teams are providing the services for the disable person. In settings of
health care as well as social care, the higher authorities have to do supervision of their staff
members as it is necessary. A supervisor of Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. have to provide a
professional relationship by providing support so that they can not face any problems. The
barriers which the company is facing that is miscommunication and different professional codes
of practices. As I am a member of team and by that they can find the different problem which
includes Miscommunication is the main problem in care homes. When they use any incorrect
information then they can not provide proper treatments to their clients. So, among all the staff
members trust have to build and maintain so that they can share actual and proper data or
information about the person and on the basis of that they have to provide treatment to their
service users (Olsen, 2015). Another is different professional code of conduct and for remove
that barrier, higher authorities have to make a team of same professional members so that they
can not any obstacle in providing the services and all the employees having appropriate
knowledge regarding the work in the care homes and what type of services they have to provide
to their consumers.
TASK 4
4.1 Personal contribution's effectiveness when working in health care with others
As I am a care worker, every single person having a contribution which influence the
effectiveness of the work done in the organisation. In various way I also contribute and it also
influence the effect of the work in Signature Senior Lifestyle Ltd. I know each and every norms,
policies and legislative practices of the health and social care. So it help me to provide
satisfactory services to the clients. Even my colleagues get many help with my knowledge and
ideas and this way team work get developed.
With my co-workers I can very effectively communicate and with this lots of
misunderstanding, grudges and conflicts can be avoided and solved. I have thorough knowledge
of the roles and responsibilities of every individual which I share and always monitor them so
that it helps me and the team members to work effectively. Roles and responsibilities are given
equally to each and every team members which helps as a team to achieve the target effectively
and efficiently and it will lead in the fulfilment of the needs and the expectations of health and
social care and its clients (Patti and et. al., 2012).
