How do you embed the principles of dignity, choice, control and empowerment into delivering care and support?


This course aims to assist participants' understanding of the ways that the principles of dignity, choice, control and empowerment can run through the provision of all aspects of care and procedures.

It also looks at how to keep the individual service user at the centre of care planning, and guard against institutional practices.
