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.).
Working in partnership with others is a way in which an individual can enhance

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 case study will identify a number if strategies to apply supportive approaches using the principals and practices of providing person-centred care, reflected against a real client situation within an organisational perspective. The case study is considering the situation with reflection of the two questions chosen from the Person-centred Care Assessment Tool. In relation to one’s ability to engage and be supported in the facilitation and management of person-centred care directives, within the role of a leisure and health officer.
As there is more than one agency involved in the needs of the service users their information is being passed down to more than one professional, this can lead to information misplaced receiving the wrong care for their needs, also the more agencies involved the more complicated the process gets and it will be harder to organise care suitable for them.
Today patients are encouraged to be active in their care. Patient involvement has led to quality
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.
...igning practitioner training programmes that include direct service user input. Current practices within services were discussed and highlighted a power imbalance between the service user and practitioner where the practitioner often holds all of the power and the views of the service user are often not considered. Possible resistance to a working partnership was discussed followed by suggestions to address these barriers to change. This highlighted that there are already policies in place that encourage a working partnership but Tait and Lester (2005) suggest there is no real evidence that these policies are being used regularly in practice. This essay has shown that a working partnership where the service user is involved in every aspect of their care is possible but policies and strategies need to be implemented and attitudes need to change for it to be achieved.

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’

...for themselves, allowing them to be discharged earlier and more involved with their own care.
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.
Any individual can control which care provider they would like to receive care from and of the individual isn't happy they are within their rights to change the provider if they wish. This also allows the individual to have a choice over which care staff they would like to have caring for them and allows them to choose what times and how they use their care. It also benefits individuals as it helps to build their independence and builds their confidence
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.
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). My passion and focus for health care motivates me
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.
