What Makes Effective Care Planning?

Effective care planning is essential for providing high-quality care tailored to individual needs. At Dignity Care, we offer a range of services to ensure comprehensive support. Here are the key components of effective care planning:

A person-centered approach tailors the care plan to meet unique needs and preferences, involving the individual, their family, and the care team.

A thorough assessment of physical, emotional, social, and mental health needs is the foundation of any effective care plan. This helps in identifying the appropriate type of care, whether it’s live-in care, home care services, or domiciliary care.

Setting clear, achievable goals provides direction and purpose. Goals can range from improving mobility to enhancing social interaction.

An effective care plan is flexible and adaptable to changing needs. Services like respite care and drop-in care may be needed at different times and for varying durations.

Collaboration and open communication among all parties involved, including the individual, family, caregivers, and healthcare professionals, are crucial. For example, sit-in care often involves multiple caregivers, making seamless communication essential.

Continuous monitoring and evaluation ensure the care plan remains effective and responsive to the individual’s needs. Regular check-ins, assessments, and feedback help in making necessary adjustments. Effective care planning prioritizes the unique needs and preferences of the individual. By focusing on a person-centered approach, comprehensive assessment, clear goals, flexibility, collaboration, and continuous monitoring, Dignity Care provides high-quality, personalized care through services like live-in care, home care services, domiciliary care, respite care, drop-in care, and sit-in care.

On fire for delivering high quality care for older adults...

Hi everyone! I a 29 year old female from the Toronto area, and I work in programs in Long Term Care. My role is as a programs staff meaning I facilitate activities for older adults to stimulate their minds and ultimately ignite their souls. However, a portion of my job borders on psw (personal support work) because I also feed the residents and help out with other tasks the psw’s are responsible for. Right now I am in the dementia home area  where most have severe dementias. It is a locked facility. I am happy there because I find dementia fascinating from a psychological perspective and try to emulate myself as being a Maria Montessori type healer, or dementia whisperer (ha ha). When I started this work there was a spiritual component to it, I found myself getting closer to god through the work I did, the helping aspect of it (bringing out the kindness within). Currently, our home is currently on outbreak due to Covid 19. Let’s just say it hasn’t been as easy to be inspired and find the kindness within (though I promise and make an oath never to be a caregiver who talks down to seniors). It hasn’t been an easy ride and I had to live in a hotel on my own for a while when things were really bad. Going to work used to be a little scary even though I'm not someone who is terribly petrified by getting covid 19. I am creating this blog for the carer and curiosity seekers like me who want to learn more about gerontology and keeners who want to learn how to become better, more informed caregivers. I will be posting based on research and drawing from experiences. It will be a process, I will post as I learn more and more. My goal is for this research to help to better my work with older adults, giving me a more informed approach. I will not be using any names of people or places and I shall remain anonymous too! Enjoy the site, I hope you learn something new and exciting about the field of gerontology.

WHAT ARE THE 5 PRINCIPLES OF PERSON-CENTERED CARE

The demand for healthcare is ever-growing and hence, it is very important to expand the care industry across the globe. As the demand is increasing fast, caregivers often lose sight of the person behind the condition they are treating or caring. This is the main reason why person centered care is so important to us. It helps the carers to fulfil each patient's need beyond their ailment or disability. Finally, it helps the caregivers to focus on some crucial aspects of a patient's physical and mental wellness. The health and social care sector worldwide is transforming their services to patient centered care as it has shown countless examples of the betterment of health. Hence, as a carer, you must know the principles of this service so that you learn how to apply it in practice. Here,we will discuss about the five main principles of patient centered care, which will help you tp understand its value. So, without any further delay, let's begin with what patient centered care means and then we will proceed to its five main principles. What is Person Centered Care? Person centered care is basically caring for patients by providing a tailored service that suits their individual needs. This service values the choices or priorities of individuals that usually differ from one to another. The patients can avail this service residing in their own home and they do not need to visit any care centre or nursing home in general. To provide this service, the carer needs to know every patient as a person and involve them in making decisions. It always encourages feedbacks and inputs from patients that actually help them to recover sooner. As a carer, you need to adapt your service to the patients' needs, expectations and preferences throughout the process. 5 Principles of Person Centered Care: 1. Care with Respect and Dignity: The first principle of person centered care is to treat patients with respect and dignity. Usually, ordinary services do not focus on individual needs and often overlooks the person beyond the condition. On the contrary, this service enables the carers to maintain the dignity of people by respecting their needs and choices. It is more about compassion and empathy than treatment. Patients have their own thoughts, feelings and opinions, which are given priority in this service. 2. Provide Coordinated Care: Consistent or long term person-centred care involves coordination with other health and social care workers. If a patient move between services or carers, they need to again build the trust, which might lead to further complications. To avoid it, the caregivers record patients’ needs in their care plan and share it with other caregivers and services whenever necessary. Read More...
