Providing Choice and Protecting Dignity
We treat our service users with dignity and respect, adhering to their wishes and preferences wherever possible. Empowering them to make their own decisions and choices about the care they receive, while ensuring their safety and the safety of others. We do this by active discussion and feedback, providing accessible information, and by promoting the use of advocates to ensure the service user’s voice is being heard.
We encourage our service users to take positive risks that promote their independence and sense of wellbeing and achievement. Where an individual has been assessed as lacking the capacity to make safe choices, we work with the person’s wider circle of multi-agency support to determine the least restrictive path to respect their wishes and keep them safe. We do not provide seclusion provisions, instead our team supports service users through de-escalation techniques in situations where they may present with increasing aggression.
We support individuals to design and personalise their rooms to ensure they feel at home, and we encourage family and friends to visit their loved ones at any time, just as they would if they were living in their own home.
