PHILOSOPHY OF CARE

Andana Retirement Communities aims to provide service users with a secure, relaxed and homely environment in which their care, well being and comfort is of prime importance.

Carers will strive to preserve and maintain the dignity, individuality and privacy of all service users within a warm and caring atmosphere, and in doing so will be sensitive to the service user’s ever changing needs.  Such needs may be medical/therapeutic, cultural, psychological, spiritual, emotional and social, and service users are encouraged to participate in the developments of their individual care plans in which the involvement of the family and friends may be appropriate and greatly valued.

This will be achieved through programmes of activities designed to encourage mental alertness, self esteem, and social interaction with other service users and with recognition of the following core values of care which are fundamental to Andana’s philosophy.

All staff in the community will be appropriately qualified to deliver the highest standards of care.  A continuous staff training program is implemented to ensure that these high standards are maintained in line with the latest initiatives and developments in care practices as may be laid down in appropriate legislation, and registration authority guidelines.

SERVICE USER’S RIGHTS

The rights of all of our service users are the main priority in our philosophy of care.  We will promote those rights through the care and services we provide and encourage all service users to exercise their rights to the full.

PRIVACY AND DIGNITY
We recognise the changes service users face when moving from one location to another and to a new home environment. To minimise the impact of those changes we will promote the philosophy of a "family atmosphere". We will endeavour to retain as much privacy and dignity as possible by:

• Helping service users to personalise and equip their rooms    as they wish.
• By providing keys to their rooms and a secure place for    valuables as they wish.
• Giving service users the opportunity to have privacy when    receiving guests, making telephone calls or opening and    reading mail.
• Securing all service users' records and information and    respecting the confidentiality of those records.
• Treating each service user as an individual and a respected    member of the "family unit".
• Assisting service users to maintain their dignity through    their personal appearance and behaviour
• Promoting activities that encourage service users to express    themselves as individuals.
• Helping service users to overcome any shortcomings hey    may experience through age or disability.

We recognise the importance for all service users to retain their independence and the problems that group living can cause.  We will encourage service users to act and think as an individual by:

• Maximising the opportunities for service users self care.
• Encourage service users to retain financial independence.
• Helping service users to take reasonable and fully assess the risks.
• Ensuring service users maintain the links with contacts outside their home away from home.
• Giving all service users the opportunity to contribute to the records of their own care and to express their views on the care.

FREEDOM OF CHOICE

We recognise that every service user should have the opportunity to choose a home which will meet their needs and can offer the care they require.  They should be given the opportunity to exercise their right of choice in all aspects of daily living.  To facilitate that choice we will:

• Provide comprehensive information on the community and the quality of services and care available.
• Provide each service user with a contract or a statement of terms of conditions of residency.
• Carry out a needs assessment on each service user prior to admission if possible.
• Demonstrate to each service user that we can meet their assessed needs.
• Offer the opportunity for prospective service users to assess the home byway of a trial period.
• Provide a range of meals to choose from and allow them to decide where and when they wish to consume the food of their choice.
• Continually offer a wide range of social and leisure activities.
• Avoid strict routines and maintain maximum flexibility in the daily life of the service user.
