...framework for care workers to help underpin the service they provide for their clients and are incorporated into codes of practice of different care professions. If these values are not adhered to, a care worker may be struck off the professional register and would not be allowed to work in the health profession again. The principles of care are: * Promoting and supporting individuals’ rights to dignity, independence, choice and safety. * Promoting effective communication and relationships. * Maintaining confidentiality of information. * Promoting anti-discriminatory practice. * Acknowledging individuals’ personal beliefs and identity and respecting diversity. * Protecting individuals’ from abuse. * Promoting individualised care. All care workers also have codes of practice which include the rules within which they should work. They include a set of guidelines, on delivery of quality care and can also be used to measure the quality of care provided, and strengthen and support care values. Codes of practice are linked to principles of care in order to support a client’s well-being. Each professional body has a policy in relation to their specific job role. When a member of staff is employed they are required to sign a contract that states that they must observe and keep to the codes of practice relation to their job. Promoting and supporting individuals’ rights to dignity, independence, health and safety involves respecting patients’ privacy, encouraging...

...registered nurse who assesses students’ needs, to help facilitate the learning process in a practical setting. Chambers and Wall (2000) suggest that a good mentor should include qualities of honesty, enthusiasm, trust, patience, knowledge, experience and empathy. They should also be able to have a non-judgmental attitude and good interpersonal skills. For this mentorship course I have been allocated a second year child branch student. She has had little to no experience working with neonates, but has worked on a children’s ward. Her placement will last 10 weeks and she has been allocated 2 mentors. For the first week of her placement she worked with me solidly. Kenworthy and Nicklin (2000) suggest that the more comfortable and secure a student feels within the placement environment, they are more likely to have a positive experience. Honey and Mumford (1992) express that if you teach according to a specific learning style, preferred by the student this creates a tailored learning experience. They suggest that it’s important to tailor your teaching to the style your student prefers for them to have the best learning experience possible. They also describe learners as activists, pragmatists, theorists or reflectors. Honey and Mumford (1989) researched that many students were a combination of these styles but normally one of them stands strongest. When first meeting my student I took into account the learning styles depicted by Honey and Mumford (1989) to try and teaching my student...

A look at the progress of the changing focus of marketing shows a considerable shift in thinking. In the 1950's marketers were mostly focused on consumer goods, while the 1960's saw a shift towards industrial markets. In the 1970's effort was focused on non-profit or societal marketing, while in the 1980's the services sector received increasing attention. This leads us to the 1990's and through to the present where relationship marketing is the new focus of marketing. It has evolved from other forms of marketing and has countless benefits for businesses...

...half a million people die within the United Kingdom, with the majority of these deaths occurring within a hospital setting (Gomes and Higginson 2008). This statistic highlights how nurses have a significant role to carry out in the end stages of an individual’s life through continual clinical assessment, active listening and responding to expressions of loss, and recognition of ethical or spiritual concerns (Molloy et al. 2010). Communication is the foundation of end of life nursing care and by providing person-centred care through the formation of therapeutic relationships, nurses can provide care which is specifically tailored to meet the needs, wishes, norms and cultural values of the patient (Cribb and Tingle 2014). During my practice learning experiences I...

...The Evolution of Leadership style of the new generation. In a global study involving 389 leaders from 28 countries, The Centre for Creative Leadership (CCL) found that 83% of the leaders surveyed believe that the definition of effective leadership has changed in the past five years. These changes to leadership styles can be attributed to a combination of issues including a shift in people’s attitudes as well as advances in technology. There is an imperative for leaders of organisations, including HR Managers, to plan ahead and adapt to the movement of these evolving trends to ensure the best outcomes for their organisations. The move has shifted from Authoritarian leaders who believed in top-down management, strict rules and exact orders, to a progression into white collar careers with more individualised thinking and individual ownership over tasks. It was here that participative leadership styles settled in, and this style is now one of the most common leadership styles in contemporary society. Changes in leadership styles can be seen across Asia-Pacific too as a Harvard Business School Professor explains that, “As Asian companies seek access to world capital markets, they will move toward professional managers who will employ leadership styles more akin to those now used in the United States” . The participative style of leadership management is where the group is central to the decision making process, and not the leader alone. The work environment is more flexible and...

Mintzberg’s response was that management and leadership are part and parcel of the same thing and shouldn’t be seperated in practice. He expressed the belief that the seperation of leadership from managament is utterly destructive, because managers who do not lead are boring and leaders who do not manage do not know what is going on. Whilst Mintzberg seems to make a very valid point and the fusion of leading and managing appears logical, it is undeniable that cenceptual differences exist between the term management, and the term leadership. Even without an accepted or definitive distinction...

...theory and practice and enables you to develop your knowledge and skills towards becoming a professional. Reflective practice is noted as being fundamental to development as a professional. To protect anonymity and maintain confidentiality the patient focused on this assignment will be known as patient A, furthermore consent was gained from patient A and they were provided with clear information on what would be included in this assignment and where informed that no recognisable information would be given, this is done in accordance with the Nursing & Midwifery Councils Code of Professional Conduct (2002) guidelines. Nursing assessment is considered to be the first step in the process of delivering individualised nursing care which is defined by A Dictionary of Nursing (2008) as care that is planned to meet the particular needs of one patient, as opposed to a routine applied to all patients suffering from the same disease. Every person is an individual they may share things in common with others, but they are unique in the way they carry out their everyday life. Particular attention needs to be given over to their individual way of carrying out their everyday activities, and involvement in deciding what their individual goals are and how they will achieve them with the encouragement of the health professional. The nursing...

...departments when high quality care and education was delivered (Newton, Osei-Akosa & Strunk, 2007). The Global Strategy for Asthma Management and Prevention Initiative designed a simple four C strategy of patient education - Choose, Check, Correct and Confirm. While the focus is based on inhaler use, the four C strategy can be altered to suit most presentations (Bateman, Hurd, Bames, Bousquet, et al, 2015). One of the major causes associated with uncontrolled asthma and subsequent emergency department visits was improper inhaler technique (Tapp, Lasserson & Rowe, 2007). As patients can spend many hours in the emergency department receiving inhaled and nebulised medications, there is ample opportunity for nurses to provide appropriate and individualised education. I believe adoption of the four C process, if implemented correctly, can provide high quality education and care. In regards to asthma, the four Cs involve assisting the patient in choosing the correct inhaler, checking correct technique with the patient and...

...NU1505: HEALTH, SOCIETY AND CARE PROVISION INDIVIDUAL CASE STUDY (Word Count: 3,300) Introduction The author is intending to conduct a patient case study based on the care provision and elements of care that will focus on appraisal of the nursing model, socially or culturally as well as the presence of health awareness and promotion of the individual patient. The author will reflect on the identified frequent needs of an individual patient on a regular basis. The author will look at perceptions of health by the patient and their families/carers and multi-disciplinary teams with their approach to care provision, amongst others. Due to legal reasons and in respect of confidentiality the author will refer to the patient as ‘Bill’, the ward will be known as ‘Mental Health Unit’ or ‘MHU’ and the hospital as ‘local hospital’. This is necessary to protect the confidentiality and anonymity of the patients’ personal details and the hospital Trust. As the Nursing and Midwifery Council guidelines (2004) state; ‘you have a duty to protect the confidentiality of the patient or client record’, therefore it is vital to value every patients’ record details and personal confidentiality as well as their views and beliefs. ‘Healthcare professionals should make all efforts necessary to ensure that a patient can give meaningful and properly informed consent before treatment is initiated. This is especially important when a patient has a more severe depression or is subject to the Mental...

...This paper explores if it is genotype or phenotype that makes people who they are. Scientists and biologists have disagreed for many years which of these characteristics has the greatest impact on the psychological development of a person, particularly children. There is no dispute that nature is responsible for our genetic makeup - the colour of our eyes, hair and our height. But is this the same for behaviour? If a person is aggressive is this due to having been born with aggressive tendencies or is it a learned behaviour through their own upbringing? I have been able to observe a Year 4 child who has a twin brother in another school but the brothers live together in the same home environment. The reason the children are in different schools is because one child had been excluded from the school with his siblings and was transferred to a behavioural unit. There the child was diagnosed with dyspraxia which was causing him to lose his temper and lash out at his peers in frustration. This gave an ideal opportunity to observe the influences of nature and nurture on the development of 2 otherwise identical children. For most children with dyspraxia it is unknown why they have the condition. Children with developmental dyspraxia are found not to have any clear neurological disease. Research suggests that there is an under developed neurone while the brain was developing. Dyspraxia is a recognised impairment of movement commonly known as clumsy child syndrome. Children with...
