When supporting an individual the professionals and practitioners will need to give the individual holistic support. Holistic support is to give an individual a well-rounded full care that caters to their physical, intellectual, emotional, social and spiritual needs. This booklet will show how you apply principles and values to give an individual holistic care.
Having your client involved within the planning of their care is a way in which you’re enhancing their intellectual and emotional needs. Including the individual gets them to think about what they would like which stimulates their mind and also having them incorporated in the care might make them feel happy as they are being productive.

This may help the individual’s physical needs as they can choose to do activities that they would like and helps their social development. Also the right to have preferences is part of giving holistic care to an individual and provides the client to have an option in what they’d like.
Having a Multi-disciplinary or an interagency involved to increase the service users care is a way that may help all the needs that they have. By having a wider range of health care professionals such as a nurse, social worker and a psychologist helping different aspects of the individual’s life, will benefit the individual immensely and their development (Health.nt.gov.au, n.d.).

D1: Analyse reasons for working with professionals from more than one agency when planning support for individuals
In some cases within the social care sector there are a multitude of agencies or professional practitioners to help with the needs of an individual. There are a multi-disciplinary and an interagency approach that some workers use to develop a support plan.
I will show how working in partnership with other health and social care agencies benefits on the case of elderly abuse.
Multi-disciplinary and interagency both mean to collaborate and work together with other professional practitioners and / or agencies. They support the individual and help to create an effective and support plan for the service user and to help the service providers come up with a effective
The aim of the agency is to develop knowledge and skills to cater the residents and ensure they enjoy their life at the aged care. Furthermore, the agency aims to enhance local expertise in mental and physical health care, improve care through training and foster a collaboration with academics, researchers, institutions, volunteers, therapists, doctors and other health care professionals.
Consent is necessary from everyone, not only those who can verbalise his or her needs. It is important to find out the persons communication needs so that they can be involved in discussions around their needs and preferences. My duty of care is to ensure that choices are given, and that appropriate support is obtained where there is lack of capacity is the decision is complex and the individual cannot consent. This may be from families or next of kin or using advocates to ensure that the client’s best interests are maintained. There may be past events or requests that could indicate the client’s preferences, and these must be considered when choices have to be made by others. Any preferences should be recorded on care plans and shared with relevant others to be able to determine the best interests of the person. Decisions should also be put off until the client is able to make their own choices where possible and not taken on their behalf through assuming we know
Today patients are encouraged to be active in their care. Patient involvement has led to quality

Service user involvement and participation has become a standard principle in guiding social care planning in order to improve in the developing and delivery of service to meet diverse and complex needs in a more effective way. Key pieces of legislation states plainly that service users through a partnership approach should be enabled to have voice on how the services they are using should be delivered (Letchfield, 2009). The Scottish Executive (2006a:32) helpfully state ‘Increasing personalisation of services is both an unavoidable and desirable direction of travel for social work services. Unavoidable in the sense that both the population and policy expect it; desirable in the extent to which it builds upon the capacity of individuals to find their own solutions and to self-care, rather than creating dependence on services’
The purpose of this interview is to explore human service professional in their work environment, and observe human service professional in their particular settings, what type of education is required for their position of choice. The human services profession has a variety of populations that they serve; this is a wide array of people. Human service professionals serve populations such as, high-risk mothers who may have shortfalls in education, psychosocial, nutritional, and little or no transportation. Another is the homeless population, lack housing due to being unable to afford, or maintain safe and adequate housing. The elderly is a population that is increasing, there needs range from chronic illness, lack of or little education, mentally, financial, loss of independence, and stereotyping. They serve those diagnose with a chronic illnesses, such illnesses may be diagnoses of , high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, there is also the chronic mentally ill who are consider high risk, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD(attention deficit hyperactive disorder). These are just a few of the services that a human service professional may work with.
Because interprofessional teams meet and discuss the goals of the patient, it improves the care of the patients by increasing the coordination of services. There is a more efficient use of time when all the team members are on the same page and want to meet the same goal. Additionally, interprofessional team care will highly benefit patients as professionals can gather the services or resources that apply to the patient for a better quality care. Social workers make a great addition to an interprofessional health care team because social workers can help patients feel empowered when it comes to decisions made as a

It is also more likely to effectively encourage patients to be active partners in planning and managing their own care. It is significant for medical care provider...
The relationship between personalisation and rights is a person's right to choice. Ie the person has a right to direct payments and to personalisation to allow them to choose which care provider they would like to provide their care. Personalisation means that someone has a personal budget to use direct payments to pay or their care. This allows the person to have a right to choose what care they receive and who from.
A social worker must have the knowledge and skills to apply to intervention strategies that can address key issues through a wide range of tools (Miley, O’Melia & Dubois 2013, p. 7). To devise an intervention plan for the case study, Miley’s (2013, p. 112) four step model is utilised.
...for themselves, allowing them to be discharged earlier and more involved with their own care.
It is important to address the crisis formally or informally. Social workers work alongside a team of other health providers to work on a plan for the client and their families. Problem solving is short-term. First, social workers identify the problem, then break it up into smaller, easier to manage tasks and allocate them to the other team members involved. In social work, social workers need to “think on their feet” to solve problems quickly and may only find a way to deal with clients issues halfway if the problem comes on terribly quickly until the problem can be dealt with fully. To make coherent decisions on the on the client 's behalf, social workers need all of the information available before they can make an adequate decision. They should always be clear and concise when explaining plans and decisions.
Autonomy is defined as having control over one’s self. This has become the governing principle that healthcare providers strive to practice when it comes to their relationships with their patients. Giving patients the control over their own body allows them to choose the direction they believe will be best for them, while also allowing the provider to ethically respect their decision, even if they may not personally agree with it. In contrast, another approach to the healthcare provider, patient relationship, is paternalism. Where autonomy has the patient steering the wheel of decision making, paternalism gives the keys to the healthcare provider.
For example, their choice ( if they want to do it) is taking the patient's specific directions when helping them with their ADL routine, choosing their ADL products and outfits. It is also important to continue to respect them, encourage them, respect their ideas/desires to incorporate a family member (only family member(s) designated by them that they want involved in their care), being addressed by the name they prefer to be called, and in incorporating them as full partners in deciding and providing their care. Don Berwick in the YouTube video is sad today about his right knee surgery which he didn't think was necessary. To avoid cases like this, we can “do for them” by incorporating them into their care plan as a full partner. The goal is to work with them with encouragement to regain their strengths again.
As a Public Health Professional, I have the unique perspective of collaborating methodologies of treatment and prevention while keeping in mind the various complexities that health care has to offer (such as cost effectiveness, accessibility, and quality of service).
