Topics discussed
also mentioned the negative effects junk food can have on mood, sleep
and health; drawing on an experience from her own practice. I agree that
the principle of not rewarding adults with learning disabilities with
unhealthy treats and giving them undeserved praise holds true and that
taking a more measured approach to validation is more consistent to the
open workplace.
PE talked about need to think things through and drew on experience of
working with children in a refugee centre and working around a
programme of adopt and cherish to
encourage individuals to take
responsibility for their behaviour, environment and pride. PE told me
about the Aboriginal model where older adults have status and are
respected in the village as opposed to western society where they are
often discriminated against ; the Mediterranean Model where multigenerational families are living in the same house and child-rearing
differed in Indonesia and the possible impact on attachment. PE talked
about fostering and how being younger may go against potential families
and how the requirements against which they are measured may make
the home environment strange for the child, leading to placement
breakdown. Also, briefly discussed was: grandparents as kinship carers
and the need to assess capabilities rather than an age; the fact that
health and age do not necessarily have a causal link and that this
generation will die younger and achieve less than their parents
PE mentioned that we as social workers dont have the right to stop
people from doing anything, Samaritans can talk to people who are
contemplating suicide and try to talk them out of this however we cannot
restrain them. She went on to mention how when a person takes an
overdose medical staff pump their stomach, and we discussed the idea of
best interests, fear of reprisal for allowing a person to die and possibility
of being accused of assisting suicide.
Briefly discussed the MHA (2007) and how this allows doctors and
Approved Mental Health Professionals to have individuals detained, giving
them greater power over individuals/service-users.
PLS discussed briefly and minor suggestions of required changes around
my use of language, especially member of staff instead of staff and
oppressive instead of wrong, also advised me to be a bit more careful
with my grammar.
PE did not mention any pressing issues apart from my need to talk to OSS
regarding how to use a communication passport.
