As a health care team we have decided to add a flashing light to replace to noise catching the individuals attention so they understand what is going on. All alarm and lights should be checked regularly to make sure everything is in working order.]]> 2023-09-26 13:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/latoya_brown/Latoya/wish/2721256404 c) https://padlet.com/latoya_brown/Latoya/wish/2721257460 An environment with insufficient resources may be the cause of the shortage. For example, those who live in underserved areas may face obstacles to earning income. A lack of resources can cause underdeveloped learning generationally. resource limitation, or capacity strain is associated with changes in care delivery, in some cases, poorer outcomes among critically ill patients. This may result from normal variation in strain on available resources, chronic strain in persistently under-resourced settings.]]> 2023-09-26 13:32:08 UTC https://padlet.com/latoya_brown/Latoya/wish/2721257460 Communication- tiarn & Leandra https://padlet.com/latoya_brown/Latoya/wish/2721262861 A. Effective communication is key to empower a service user. Having clear communication will allow the user and worker to have a full understanding of task at hand (eg making informed decisions about their health and lifestyle). This will help them feel heard, supported and more independent eventually boosting their confidence and self-esteem. 
B. By talking clearly and in a way the service user will understand. Having a friendly tone, active listening, Adapting communication to meet service users needs, Giving and receiving constructive feedback, and showing empathy and respect are all good communication practices when helping make informed decisions about their health and safety. NO SLANG. 
C- Some barriers may occur that might hinder empowerment. This could be language barriers (whether that be language, non-verbal, deaf or not willing to talk/ lack of self confidence). Social isolation, Environmental barriers such as: distraction, noise, lack of family support, negative attitude from society 
to overcome these we would use different communication techniques. Eg sign language, speech tablet (for non-verbal and or autistic individuals), allow service user to feel safe and supported so they feel more comfortable to be open, translation devices and apps to overcome language barriers.
Having sufficient knowledge of a patients culture, language and customs can help health care workers to communicate clearly and avoid prejudice and miscommunication.

This creates an environment where the person feels comfortable and appreciated. As a result, this will now allow the person to be more motivated, responsible, independent and resilient. 
B} A situation in where a persons needs and preferences was overlooked was in a classroom. This situation is based on Tom who was 14 years old in his English class. Tom struggled with LD which created some barriers in his communication. This tends to make Tom overlooked in his classroom environment. Due to this Tom tends to feel very anxious and frustrated whenever he enters the classroom environment and whenever asked a question.
C} Healthcare professionals can tailor their approach to meet diverse needs and preferences to promote empowerment by focusing cultural barriers. A scenario where this may be portrayed is when a women of colour becomes pregnant and is overlooked and neglected by predominantly white healthcare professionals. This can be conveyed in increasing rise of black female deaths caused by maternity. ]]> 2023-09-26 13:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/latoya_brown/Latoya/wish/2721287072
