Things that differ between individuals other than their preferences is the way in which they communicate, not all people receiving care can tell you verbally what they want due to disability, language differences they can’t hear the question or maybe they can’t understand the question. Treating all individuals the same just because they cannot tell you what they want in a conventional manner classifies as institutional abuse, this can be combated by using different methods of communication such as:-…

| It is important for to work in a way that promotes person centered values to meet the needs of every individual and to provide the best quality care service. It is also important to treat the individual as you would want to be treated. If I were to do a survey about what people like, I would get different answers which demonstrate how different we all are, even if there are similarities. This is what gives us our identity and makes us special and unique. We have the freedom to make choices everyday about how we live our life. The individuals a care for may have different circumstances from everyone else, but they still have the same rights as me and everybody else does, to make the same choices and do the same things. The only difference is that some individuals will need more care and support than others in order to help them to achieve what they want to achieve. The level of care and support will depend on the level of the individual’s ability and the choices they want to make.…
Anti-discriminatory practice is promoted in health and social care settings through putting service users at the heart of provision, ‘this means to focus on what the person needs and provide is, giving them control and power over their lives, rather than just telling them what services are available.’ (Health and Social Care, Hodder, Rasheed et al, page 27, 2010) The individual is put at the heart of service provision, the health and social care sector needs to, empower individuals, provide active support consistent with the beliefs, culture and preferences of the individual, promote individuals’ rights, choices and well-being and support individuals to express their needs and preferences. All care is centred around the individual’s needs. This means that in a health care setting a care plan will be done with the resident so that the resident feels they have control over their care and the staff would be able to care for that service user according the their preferences, sometimes it not possible for the service user themselves to tell the staff their preferences, this could be because of a disability, such as learning difficulties or someone who has a hearing impairment, then the service user could have a family member or an advocate can speak on behalf of them because if the care worker doesn’t do the care plan with them then this will not empower the service user and their care will not be to their preferences which could be very distressing for the resident.…
We need to develop a clear understanding about the individuals we are working with. This includes their needs, their culture, their means of communication, their likes and dislikes, their family and other professionals’ involvement so we can promote and provide person centred care and support.…

An example of discrimination is that an employer does not give an applicant a job even though they are the best qualified person because the employer incorrectly thinks that the applicant is gay. This is a form of direct discrimination. In a health and social care setting you should treat everyone equally no matter their sexual orientation. As a care professional you should not make assumptions or make prejudgements about a person because it could lead to the care user being physical and emotionally hurt as they are going to feel that they are not value because of their differences to other people in society. You as a care professional should value everyone’s differences as it shows respect to the care user. It is important that you provide everyone with the same amount of respect as this is in their code of conduct which all employees should follow as this is part for their job and they should take this into consideration.…
