Task – 1 [L01]
[PPD 1.1] Compare Personal Values/Principles versus Support Principles for Health/Social Care
My personal principles and values are based on the compassionate administration of holistic and person-centred health-care support interventions to the patients of various age groups i
espective of their cultural or ethnic dissimilarities. I believe in improving the autonomy of the treated patients while elevating their engagement and contribution in shared decision-making (Barnes et al. 2017). I earnestly believe in accomplishing the social care requirements of the patients while facilitating the overall improvement of their wellness outcomes (The Guardian 2014).
My personal values advocate the enhancement of the patients’ rights, equality, and dignity in the context of minimising their sufferings and ailments through problem-oriented health care measures (Rassin 2008). I had been
ought up in a family that always emphasised the role of religious values, dignity, and respect in improving the health-related quality of life. The moral values that I attained through my family culture substantially influenced my thinking pattern and motivated me to practice compassion and empathy in real-life scenarios. Furthermore, my peers, elders, and friends always motivated to live a quality life and undertake focussed efforts for enhancing the general well-being of the disabled and economically impoverished masses.
The healthcare personalisation is paramount to the enhancement of psychosocial support measures for effectively improving the recovery process of the patients in various health care settings. The Health and Social Care Act advocates the use of motivational interventions in the context of accomplishing the social care and mental health care requirements of the patient population (Glover-Thomas 2013). The deployment of health and social care support systems is conducive to the provision of equitable, harmonious, and evidence-based treatment approaches while preserving the dignity and human rights of the treated patients (Nunes, Nunes & Rego 2017). The protection of the patients’ confidential information is highly necessary for enhancing their trust and confidence in the recommended health/social care approaches (Beltran-Aroca et al. 2016). The social care principles not only advocate a substantial reduction in the patients’ safety events but also elevate their self-control, self-care command, self-regulation, independence, and autonomy in the hospital setting (Schweppenstedde et al. 2014).
My personal values consistently emphasise the requirement of protecting human dignity and well-being. I also focus on improving the mental health and hygiene of the patients in the context of safeguarding their individuality, respect, and self-esteem. These values radically match with the health/social care support principles that advocate the use of mental stimulation and cognitive training in the context of enhancing the personal care quality, mental health, and social well-being of the underprivileged and stratified patients (Kelly et al. 2014). I believe in the enhancement of honesty, discipline, creativity, humility, and curiosity in a team-oriented environment. Accordingly, the health and social care conventions advocate the requirement of coordinating with disciplined and honest health care teams in the context of optimising decision-making skills, social connectedness, and quality of life of the treated patients through the configuration of shared goals (Babiker et al. 2014).
The principles of health/social care support advocate the regulation of health care professionals’ training duration and tasks to give them more flexibility and autonomy for the systematic optimisation of conservative patient care measures in the health care settings (Nanca
ow 2015). Contrarily, my personal values advocate the need for using inclusive health care approaches through the extended engagement of the treated patients in the context of enhancing their overall treatment experience. Resultantly, I continue experiencing substantial challenges in coordinating with transformative team leaders who believe in the autonomous execution of conservative patient management approaches. This inadvertently disrupts the overall health care quality in the hospital setting.
An ethical dilemma arises in patients care situations where the health care professionals do not meticulously focus on enhancing the patients’ non-maleficence and beneficence in the treatment units (Vaz & Srinivasan 2014). This eventually leads to safety events and adverse effects due to medical e
ors or inappropriate psychosocial care in the hospital setting. For example, the inappropriate use of restrains for mentally ill patients not only causes their human rights violation but also lead to their psychosocial stigmatisation in the hospital ward. I believe in providing compassionate and person-centred care via therapeutic communication in these scenarios in the context of enhancing treatment compliance, dignity, trust, and satisfaction of the mentally ill patients (Bukstein 2016).
[PPD 1.2] Assess how Personal Experience/ Culture on Various Support Services for Health Care Users in Health/Social Care Facilities
Personal culture is based on societal norms, beliefs, and ethnicity that continue to impact the thinking process of individuals. Personal culture substantially impacts the behavioural health and identity of people (CFSAT 2014). Personal culture reciprocates with self-perception, concepts, and beliefs that consistently shape the ideology of an individual since birth.
I personal culture is based on Christian faith that consistently inspires me to inculcate humanitarian perspectives and perform focussed efforts for human welfare. I attained the Christian culture through my family values, ethnicity, and environment that substantially assisted me to acquire morality and prosocial behaviour. The Christian culture proved highly conducive to the enhancement of my ethical perspectives and compassionate attitude towards mankind (McKay & Whitehouse 2015).
I encountered several opportunities to support elderly people in the context of facilitating their personal care and daily living activities. I encountered numerous situations across the clinical practice environment where the elderly people lost their autonomy and medication compliance under the sustained impact of their psychosocial and physical challenges. The absence of peer support in many situations made me feel vulnerable and undignified. Eventually, I realised the value and worth of team-based approaches and person-centred health care interventions and accordingly coordinated with multidisciplinary health care professionals to accomplish the personalised requirements of the aged patients in the hospital setting. The demotivation and isolation of the patients that I experienced during my clinical placement inspired me to practice motivational techniques in the context of improving the health-related behaviours of the patient population (Simpson & Balsam 2016).
I strongly felt the need for compassion, teamwork, and honesty throughout my health care career. I encountered many situations where the mentally ill patients not only encountered depression and anxiety but also failed to comply with the recommended treatment. Similarly, isolation, workload, staff shortage, and other environmental constraints substantially impacted the workflow and health care outcomes of my colleagues. I eventually utilised team-based approaches and shared decision-making that not only elevated the patients’ trust but also minimised their safety risks to a considerable extent (Freytag et al. 2017). The team-oriented approaches also minimised the work burden of my colleagues while elevating their participation in multifactorial patient care activities.
[PPD 1.3] The Impact of Personal Changes/Developments in Personal Values on Work Profile
The personal value changes and new developments indicate the modifications in the thought processes of individuals that consistently motivate them to encounter complex life situations through the systematic use of innovation and self-esteem. The individual preferences emanate under the impact of changing values and beliefs that motivate individuals to practice autonomy and equity at work for the systematic accomplishment of the situational requirements (Shams, Shams & Yazdani 2016).
The Care Act of 2014 is a recent development that attempts to protect the choices and well-being of adult patients (Johnson & Boland 2019). The children’s home regulation conventions foster the implementation of regulations for accomplishing the wider requirements of residential children pertaining to various age groups (DOE 2015). These innovative developments have transformed my working style in a manner to practice empowerment, prevention, proportionality, protection, partnership, and accountability in health care practice.
The new innovative developments have substantially elevated my level of compassion and positive attitude towards the patient population. These developments also motivate me to elevate my professional partnership with treated patients while giving them better treatment choices in accordance with their psychosocial complications and physical requirements. I, therefore, tend to utilise my modified values to effectively elevate the level of transparency and accountability in health care practice.
[SSL.2] Individual Contributions for Assisting the People Affected with Significant Life Episodes
    Significant life episodes include past events that prove to the source of psychosocial and physical stress for individuals. For example, substance abuse trajectories, alcohol abuse episodes are the significant life events that drastically impact the health, wellness, and social life of the affected people (Jessup et al. 2014). Other significant life events include the experience of chronic diseases, life-threatening conditions, and accidental deaths.
One of my clients experienced a significant life event related to the accidental death of his mother during childhood. I effectively used therapeutic communication to provide compassionate and empathetic support to the client in the context of improving the mental health issues that he experienced after his mother’s death. One of my patients experienced lower limb paralysis after meeting an accident inside a coal mine. I deployed person-centred therapy in the context of support the daily living activities of the patient and accomplishing his personalised needs in the hospital setting. A 78 years old patient experienced an advanced stage of lung cancer and required surgical intervention followed by chemotherapy. I effectively utilised cognitive behaviour therapy and palliative care interventions to enhance the psychosocial stamina of the cancer patient in the context of improving his disease coping skills.
The consistent psychosocial, person-centred, and holistic support to these clients substantially elevated their mental health outcomes, self-dependence, coping skills, comfort level, overall well-being, and a strong will to resist against their disease conditions. However, the cancer patient did not survive long due to the intensity of his metastasis that drastically deteriorated his body physiology, thereby reducing the scope of sustainability and survival. The paralysed patient exhibited limited recovery due to the compete damage of his sciatica nerve during the accident. However, all of my clients improved their psychosocial stability and mental health that greatly helped them to undertake their self-management while exhibiting limited dependence on their caretakers.
The lessons that I learned while dealing with significant life episodes and related issues included the requirement of customised health care interventions in accordance with their personalised requirements, palliative needs, and self-care challenges. I believe in the requirement of implementing shared decision-making and person-centred approaches for controlling the patients’ symptoms, overall comfort level, satisfaction, treatment experience, and coping skills across the clinical practice environment. I also believe in the requirement of implementing interdisciplinary communication in the context of improving the quality of person-centred approaches for helping the clients affected with significant life episodes.
[SSLE 3.3] Support Improvement Recommendations
Person-centred care is undoubtedly the best evidence-based measure to effectively improve therapeutic compliance and health-related quality of life of the treated patients (Bosworth et al. 2017). The health care professionals are also obliged for the security of the patients’ private and confidential information in the health care setting. The health care professionals need to enhance the patient’s autonomy and discuss the treatment options with them and their family members while increasing their control and independence in relation to the therapeutic interventions or treatment decisions. The health care staff must receive training sessions in the context of improving their patient handling skills and empathetic treatment with the clients.
Task – 2 [L02]
[PP 4.1] Duties, Accountabilities, Responsibilities, and Roles in the Context of Collaborative Partnerships
My work responsibilities and attributions are based on the maintenance of personal hygiene of the treated patients. I am also responsible for the general well-being of the patients in the hospital setting. I use mental stimulation techniques in the context of enhancing the cognitive capacity of the psychologically ill patients. I not only check the medical requirements of my clients but also provide them mobility assistance and accomplish their care logs per day. I effectively facilitate client transport activities in accordance with physician appointment and other treatment requirements. I consistently coordinate with social care teams in the context of improving the motivation level, physical activities, and overall well-being of the treated patients. I facilitate the configuration of work schedules while improving the participation of clients in various health care tasks. I consistently cater to the personalised requirements of my clients while supporting their daily living activities related to hygiene, dressing, and washing. I also assist snacks and meals preparation activities and support the feeding interventions for the treated patients. I coordinate with various social care teams in the context of organising activities and social events to improve the level of entertainment and stimulation of the patient population. I undertake comprehensive patient care activities in the context of improving their cognitive functions, overall mental health, and health-related behaviour. I diligently coordinate with the social care team in the context of improving the patients’ participation in recreational activities and occupational psychotherapy. I effectively address the requirements of acute and chronically ill patients in the hospital setting.
[Com 1.2] Communication Skills in the Context of Social Care and Health Care
Communication is defined as a systematic information dissemination process based on ve
al, non-ve
al, and writing interventions. Effective communication is paramount to the exchange of feelings or thoughts between individuals (Kourkouta & Papathanasiou 2014).
The communication methods are based on in health/social care facilities are based on decoding, empathy, formal communication, informal communication, Makaton, non-ve
al communication, reference objects, symbols, and ve
al communication (BTEC_HSC 2010, pp. 1-20). Decoding is based on the retrieval of sense and logic from the coded data. Empathetic interactions utilise feelings for communicating significant cues and emotions. Formal communication is the official interaction mode utilising ve
al mode or written technique. Information communication is based on casually written text messages and notes. This is also known as a relaxed conversation. Makaton communication uses hand signs for communicating messages between the patients affected with learning or language challenges. Object-oriented communication facilitates meaningful conversation based on various ornaments, rings, or other objects. Symbol-based communication is based on the use of various icons or symbols for communication of thoughts, feelings, or messages. Ve
al communication strategy uses various word combinations for information dissemination between the individuals.
I effectively utilise therapeutic communication in the context of addressing the individualised needs of the treated patients. Therapeutic communication is based on active listening and paraphrasing of the clients’ concerns in the context of exploring viable solutions for...
