Strengths-Based Conversations
If you work within the Health and Social Care sector, we know that you are accustomed to change. The Care Act, which came into force in April 2015, represents the biggest reform of care and support since 1948, reshaping the system around prevention and promoting individual wellbeing. Strengths-Based Practice and Personalisation are at the heart of the Act.
We believe that it is of vital importance that people who approach Adult Social Care are given a great customer experience and access to a wealth of support and information that will help them to make important decisions about their lives. We want them to experience quality conversations which truly put them at the centre, ensuring that they feel listened to and understood.
Many Health and Social Care departments have made great strides in adapting their models and practice to ensure alignment to the legislation, with those doing it very well ensuring that the principles are a fundamental part of the workforce’s thinking, wellbeing and culture. Other departments may be earlier on in their journeys with peripheral changes made but not yet addressed the true underlying cultural shift that is required for long term benefit and sustainment.
We work with organisations who are ready to think and do things differently – who are committed to passing on the same permission to their workforce.
Together we will co-design a learning experience that underpins this becoming the definitive approach to the work in your organisation and make people’s lives significantly richer and more rewarding as a result.
“My experience of this programme is that it promoted a learning culture which felt positive, collaborative, empowering and non-judgemental (strengths-based in fact). I felt genuinely heard, valued and respected. I believe this created an environment where participants could freely express their views and ideas without fear of judgement or misinterpretation and that this enabled a meaningful dialogue and opened up new creativity and strength in me, which actually made me feel energised. The beauty is this is how we should be working with our clients. I believe that these qualities and conditions need to be engendered within the workforce. Then it will be carried through in a meaningful way when working with our clients - thank you for the opportunity. I have learnt so much.”
