Qualification: Level 4 Certificate in Principles of Leadership and Management for Adult Care (RQF)
Unit: Unit 13: Safeguarding and Protection in Adult Care
Learning outcome: 3 Understand restrictive practices
Assessment criteria: 3.3 Evaluate how person-centred practice and accurate assessment can minimise the use of restrictive practices
- Person-centred practice and accurate assessment can minimise the use of restrictive practices because care and support services will be tailored to the individual’s unique needs, wishes and preferences
- Therefore the individual will have more choice and control over the practices that are used in their care and support and be happier with the care and support services that they receive
- The least restrictive option should always be used – creative thinking can be used to develop solutions that remove the need for or minimise the use of restrictive practices
