What are the purposes of legislation

The main purpose of legislations being created is to raise awareness to the situation and to show support for the peoples right(s). This ensures that care organisations then need to adapt policies and procedures to adapt to that law; giving a framework as to what is expected of care workers.

Why should we maintain rights?

By keeping rights, it allows service users to feel empowered, positively impacting the users intellectual development. As they will feel valued, trustful, safe and will have confidence in that care setting. It could also raise some users self-esteem as equal care access flourishes users despite differences with no discrimination. Needs are met; raising no concern.

Alternatively, rights should be maintained as legislations ensure no poor practice can take place from organisations as they need to adapt policies and procedures to meet this law; and penalties for staff that do not correctly follow the rules.

How can we provide information about challenging d

Long-term discriminatory behaviour information is given by long pro-active campaigning to ensure that the message is sent across. To ensure this leguslations require that staff have briefings aout the situation reguarly; as well as displays, campagins and workshops to be annual to allow the message to spread.

However, if discriminatory behaviour happens at the time: staff should stop anyone slurring discrimination and lecturing the person about it.

Filing with the behaviour afterwards should be dealt with lectures about why what the persondid was wrong and telling the victim the steps to make a complaint if needed to. In worst-case scenario legal action could be taken.

How can we provide information on how to keep serv

To keep users up-to-date with information all about the service; locations of where the service is should be online or locally so users know where to find it; as well as location, opening and closing times along with a clear insight of what type of care is provided, i.e. a nursery, carehome etc... Especially with contact info (phone number). Finally, if the user does not like the options staff should be able to offer alternative services beneficial to the user.

How to provide information on how complaints proce

Complaint procedures should be provided by staff willingly to let users know they car. Staff shouleither giveout leaflets with contact numbers for customer services or tell the people themselves the steps to take when making a complaint, or telling people what options they have.

The users opinions and views should be took into consideration when dealing with a complaint; this makes the user feel empowered as they are being listened to and it is their right to say what they think. If the issue is dealt with the user will develop trust; if not it may lead to withdrawral or lack of confidence.

 Translators can be given to help multi-cultural users get their point across whom cannot speak fluent english. Or a staff member who could inquire other staff members for information about a certain subject if someow the user is not able to. Staff could also translate for the deaf.
