Person centred
values recognise a person’s individuality, dignity, choice, rights, equality
and diversity and independence which is principle value of all aspects of
social care work. It helps us to deliver care according to every individual’s
needs which respect their choices, rights, dignity, privacy and independence.
It also helps to promote individual’s choices, rights, privacy and independence
which are General Social Care Council’s (GSCC) codes of practice.
Person centred
values helps an individual to gain self-esteem, which helps them to protect
from any potential harm and abuse. If we do not maintain person centred values in our
practice, then we will not be able to deliver care according to individual’s
needs and we will be failed at our role’s aims and objectives.
