Your Life Your Choice

Brookside Health Care Ltd Philosophy of Care aims to promote and reflect the values that focus upon the individual Service User, as being central to the care service planning and delivery of care.

In order to achieve this Brookside Health Care Ltd has drawn upon the fundamental core values of care which underpin the service values. These are the basis for the provision of individual care services.

Brookside Health Care Ltd believes the best person to plan his or her future is that person. We help our Service User’s to fulfil their expectations and aspirations and we enable them to make their own plans and decisions regarding their life.

These are:

Respect for the intrinsic worth, dignity and individuality of the Service User. His/her racial identity and cultural heritage.

Autonomy and independence of personal decision making, including the assumption of risks as well as responsibilities associated with citizenship.

Choice of occupational activities, lifestyle and the maintenance of independence, including the opportunity to select from a range of options where possible.

Participation and integration in society, in the development of plans, policies and decisions affecting the Service User's life.

Fulfilment of personal aspirations and abilities in all aspects of daily life, including the opportunity to develop new skills and knowledge.

Maintenance of privacy from unnecessary intrusion, together with the safeguarding of confidentiality.

Equality of opportunity and equal access to services irrespective of age, race or ethnic origin, colour, creed, religion, political affiliation, disability or impairment, marital status, parenthood, gender or sexual orientation.
