The Seven Care Values
Health and social care workers follow seven key principles: respect for others, preserving dignity, effective communication, empowering and promoting independence, maintaining confidentiality, safeguarding and duty of care, and promoting anti-discriminatory practice.
Each value plays a crucial role in making sure people feel valued and safe. Whether someone's dealing with physical disabilities, learning difficulties, or just the challenges that come with getting older, these values provide a safety net.
The most important thing to understand is that these aren't separate rules - they all work together to create an environment where everyone feels respected and heard.
