HSC304 Person Centred Care
Within this unit learners will look at the role of person-centred care in interactions with service users. They will also consider other models of care delivery and their strengths and weaknesses in delivering care to meet the needs of different populations of service users. Delivering high quality care is not always easy and learners will examine the potential ethical issues that could arise & how these could be dealt with.
Learners will develop an understanding of the difficulties of balancing individual autonomy and minimising potential risk to vulnerable service users.
Learners will consider relevant health and social care legislation that impacts on both those delivering care and individuals receiving care. The role of government departments and other agencies in producing legislation and guidance and how this affects local policies, procedures and care delivery will be covered.
