Statement of Good Practice
1.1 Statement of good practice
Home care services should reflect and promote values upon the individual service user as being the centre of care service planning and service delivery. To help achieve these, MoralCare has drawn upon the fundamental core values of care to develop service values. The service values are as follows:
- Independence of decision making
- Choice of lifestyle and the best way to maintain independence
- Respect, dignity and individuality in society, and the development of plans, policies and decisions affecting the individuals life.
- Knowledge about conditions and prospects, options and opportunities, and ways of improving an individual's life.
- Fulfilment of personal aspirations and abilities in all aspects of daily life, including the chance to develop new skills and knowledge.
- Privacy from unnecessary intrusion, and the prevention and safeguarding of confidentiality.
- Equality of opportunity and access to services irrespective of age, race or ethnic origin, creed, colour, religion, political affiliation, disability or impairments, marital status, sexual gender or sexual orientation.
The realisation of these values, together with the level of help and support required to achieve personal goals, will be a unique process for each person - every person as an individual.
