Dignity Champions Update - May 2010
Hi Everyone,
Well this has been a really busy month for all 570+ members of K&C LINk, but particularly so for the LINk 'Dignity Champions.' After the delight and gratitude with our success sunk in, we ran an induction training course for interested members on the concept of 'dignity champions.' We ran through the 'dignity in care' campaign, the underpinning principles and our priorities in K&C namely nutrition and safeguarding.
Following on from the induction session, our helpful strategic partners in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea ran a safeguarding session for our 'Champions' and Central London Community Healthcare ran a similar session for us on nutrition.
We also had really helpful meetings, with thanks again to support from RBKC and CLCH, with possible pilot sites for both projects.
It ws then time for all the 'champions' to sit down and start drafting the assessment process for the sites. We are now inviting comment on these drafts...so if you would like to give us feedback on a dignity assessment for nutrition or for safeguarding please do get in touch!
Be in touch next month with the updated drafts and hopefully some dates for the pilot assessments!
Happy Friday,
The Dignity Champions
For K&C LINk
