Philosophy of Care
We encourage the residents at Lincolnshire House to exercise their rights in full and they are fully included in decisions that affect their lives. The following rights and values are at the forefront of our philosophy of care:
- Valuing the Individual – respecting the resident’s rights. A belief in the individual, in what makes individual’s unique.
- Privacy – a fundamental right which all recognise at Lincolnshire House.
- Involvement and Responsibility – all residents have the right to participate in the management of Lincolnshire House. Resident’s are represented on the executive council, a resident is the Chairperson, there are resident committees, fund raising and activity committees which have representation from the residents. The residents are also involved in selecting new staff.
- Security – residents expect to live in a safe and secure environment.
- Independence – residents are encouraged and supported to be independent and are encouraged to take reasonable risks as part of their independent lifestyle.
- Quality Care – Lincolnshire House is driven by the needs, abilities and aspirations of the residents not by what staff, management or any other group would like. We aim to provide the best possible care. Staff are trained to high standards to meet the resident’s needs. We continue to develop our services and improve the community for people with disabilities.
