Person centred care
Community Believe promotes a person-centred approach to caring for adults, providing an environment that will encourage and entertain our clients. Our centre facilitates different activities including beauty sessions, painting, jewellery making, classic movie shows, gardening, dance sessions and board games amongst lots of other activities.
What Person centred care means to us:
- Empowerment – Our clients are empowered to make decisions that affect their lives and we ensure this by informing them about any decisions that need to be made, we also encourage family to include them in decision making.
- Challenges - We are a learning organisation, we aim for continuous improvement and listen to ideas and suggestions for development and improvement. We challenge existing perceptions of learning disabilities, mental health and the limitations placed on those with learning disabilities by society.
- Transformation - We seek to make a difference to people's lives; for clients and their families, this means radically improving their life experience for the better - for our staff it means investing in each individual to maximise their potential and achieve the very best they can.
- Being brave - We aim to encourage innovation, creativity and flexibility and are prepared to take risks in responding to opportunities that achieve our vision and mission.
- Promoting positive views - We influence others and draw on proven best practice to inform ways in which we support people with learning disabilities and their families.
