Care Planning
Each individual resident has a person-centred plan of care, which covers every aspect of their daily living. There are a few points that we follow as a home to ensure that each resident has an up-to-date care plan and is fully comprehensive.
-
The person-centred care plan is carried out with the resident. If this is not possible due to the resident being incapable of participating then a member of their family or advocate is always involved and signs the care plan when it has been agreed.
-
The care plan is a comprehensive assessment of all aspects of their health, personal and social care needs.
-
Our care plan sets out any problem that the resident has, then a goal of care for the problem, followed by details of how to reach the goal. It is straightforward but fully comprehensive.
-
The reviewing process incorporates the resident’s weight chart followed by a needs assessment of whether the care plan needs updating. The residents are weighed monthly and therefore the care plans are updated monthly. If a plan needs updating sooner or if it is ongoing, then the care plan is changed accordingly.
