principles of safeguarding and protection in health and social care

This assignment requires that I develop and thoroughly analyze a public policy in order to advocate for one that improves the health of the public and/or the nursing profession globally (local, state, national or international). To do this, I must reflect on several aspects of being a policy maker within the nursing profession. I was instructed to consider the following:

Q4 Describe how issues of public concern have altered the way that the public views the adult health and social care sector. (2.2)

These require managers to possess specific sets of knowledge, skills and qualifications to undertake the role. They specify that managers must adhere to the NISCC Code of Practice for Social Care Workers and ensure that care staff are aware of their responsibilities. I can evaluate my performance against these standards and codes of practice by ensuring my individual training and development plan contains clear goals and expected outcomes in relation to these standards codes of practice and my job description and responsibilities, which way to achieve them and expected timeframes for completion. When undertaking appraisals and supervision with employees of the organisation, it is imperative that their personal training and development plan reflects their current job role, any gaps in knowledge or training deficits and gives clear goals and opportunities to improve any shortfalls, so as to assist them in meeting required benchmarks. The care workers progress in meeting set targets will be continually monitored throughout the year through supervision and appraisal.

With upcoming staff and company changes there will be a need to update and produce new staff handbooks.

Institutional abuse involves failure of an organisation to provide appropriate and professional individual services to vulnerable people. It can be seen or

The public policy that I have chosen to write on is the negative impact of inadequate nurse

The bill even includes specifically identifies safeguards that doctors and nurse practitioners must follow to ensure safety of those who may fall vulnerable or misuse the system. Among other safeguards, they are to ensure that the patient complies with the regulation set by criteria of eligibility, that a written request was formally made and signed by the proper parties, “that the person has been informed that they may, at any time and in any manner, withdraw their request” (Bill C-14, 7), that the timing between the written request and the day of the procedure, and that another medical professional independent to them have signed their request. These duties are left to the doctors or nurse practitioners to oversee the overall procedure. As

It can even happen in places people should be safe, ie hospitals, residential/ nursing homes, schools, daycare/ nurseries, centres etc. I researched two cases reported for abuse. The Winterbourne case which was nationally reported, and a local abuse case of East Sussex (Child G), the Winterbourne case was more of a physical an emotional abuse, whilst that Child Gs case was of sexual abuse of a child under 16 and abduction. The Winterbourne case was reported nationally because it was such a disgusting mistreatment of vulnerable people, 11 members of staff were caught on cctv after visitors and patients complained about mistreatments. The evidence that was captured showed physical abuse such as, slapping, poking eyes, pulling hair, even as unbelievable as trapping them under chairs, and soaking residents in freezing cold water. It also showed emotional and verbal abuse in the form of name calling. This was an inhumane mistreatment of vulnerable individuals, the effective and humane delivery of assessments and treatments was not provided.

A number of underlying problems rose to the surface when Carl Robins faced his current situation. Procedures that either were in place but not followed or never defined require attention to avoid this problem in the future. The problems span over several departments. The lack of communication between the parties involved is the main problem. New hires need to know what paperwork is required and when the paperwork is due. Monica Carrolls needs to know about any problems that surface that have to do with the current hiring process. The human resource department must make sure that adequate materials are available and up-to-date. The various departments must put forth a concentrated effort in order to handle this

They create structures and strategies in response to significant issues facing the society in the areas of public health, safety and community welfare. Therefore, they play an essential role in the structure of both government and non-government organisations (Laffin, 1991). Policy practitioners within government face a tremendous job as they listen to the concerns of the public and work together with social researchers to come to a resolution that all parties are happy with (Saunders and Walter, 2005).

Within this essay I will discuss how Laws and social policy are formed, developed and what the legislation intendeds to do. I will also discuss why the legislation has being developed in the practice area from a recent and historical perspective. Finally I will discuss what recent legislative and policy changes have happened in the practice area and what the impact upon service users and social workers is due to the changes.
