Statement of Aims and Objectives
We aim to provide a service to clients so that they may enjoy a good quality of life, with care provided on an individual basis according to need, enabling them to remain in their own home, thereby preserving independence, dignity, and self respect.
Client care will be based upon care plans, initially drawn up at assessment on referral. The preparation and monitoring of care plans directly relate to the attainment and retention of normal daily living activities.
Care plans will be reviewed on a regular basis with the client, the client’s relatives (if appropriate), and staff. The objectives and methods of their achievement will be agreed with the client.
Within this care plan we aim to ensure that the clients rights are observed. These rights may be summarised as follows:
The right to choose
The right of privacy
The right of self-expression
The right to be an individual
The right of independence
The right to respect
The way that care is provided and organised should enable all clients to feel valued as individuals and preserve independence, thereby helping to retain their place in the community.
