HOW WE PROVIDE OUR SERVICES – YOUR CARE AND SUPPORT PLAN
If you have a care and support plan from the NHS or the borough, we will ask to see this so that we can better understand the type of care and support that you need.
Our manager will visit you at home to explain our service and to agree how you would like your care and support to be provided. The manager will discuss any risks with you and what action needs to be taken to keep you and our carers safe. We will record this in the risk assessment report, a copy of which will be put in the Care and Support Plan folder in your home.
We will only begin a service after you or your legal representative has given written consent to the care and support plan. On rare occasions, we may need to provide a service to meet an emergency situation. In both cases, we will send either a supervisor or other competent person to carry out an initial risk assessment and to develop your care and support plan.
REVIEW OF YOUR CARE AND SUPPORT PLAN
We will monitor and review your care and support plan as necessary. A review will happen periodically, if our assessment indicates a need for it or if you request for it. Our care workers are only allowed to follow the instructions in the care plan. They cannot carry out other tasks. If you will like a change to your care plan, please contact our office and we will visit you for a discussion of same.
WHAT WE EXPECT FROM OUR SERVICE USERS
- We expect you to treat our staff with equal respect.
- We expect that our staff will not be exposed to harassment and intimidation of any kind.
- We ask you not to smoke in the home when our care workers are present.
YOUR CARE WORKERS
We will keep to a small team of care workers so that they can be familiar with you and you can be familiar with them. This will give them a good knowledge of your requirements and put them in a good position to satisfy you. Only in exceptional circumstances will you get a new care worker coming to you and we will endeavour to inform you in advance.
