Do you live in a care home? poster
The Do you live in a care home poster is for care services to display and explains that people living in adult and older people’s care homes have the right to visitors and to go out if they wish. Services should support this and not put barriers or restrictions in place even if there is an infectious outbreak, like Covid, or others in future.
Factsheets
These factsheets were created to accompany our meaningful connection webinars.
- Including family carers as partners in care
- Supporting meaningful connection and why it is important for people
- Supporting positive peer relationships for people who live in care homes
- A human-rights based approach including the Health and Social Care Standards
- Supporting meaningful connection during an outbreak situation
- Celebrating good practice
Open Badges
The Meaningful Connection, Visiting and Anne’s Law project team have, in partnership with SSSC, developed a series of Open Badges on different aspects of meaningful connection.
The badges, linked to the project’s series of webinars and factsheets, provide an opportunity for staff to reflect upon, develop, and evidence their understanding of and commitment to supporting meaningful connection in day to day practice. They will also be helpful for employers to use as part of staff training and development, and for staff to evidence their Continuous Professional Learning. The badges are geared towards staff working in care homes for adults and older people, but will also be of interest to those working in other services.
