in order to express effective communication, barriers such as physical, language or attitude should not be used. This goes against creating a positive relationship, with an individual and can lead to trust being lost.

Through communication towards an individual, if you yourself are unable to resolve a particular issue raised, the care certificate establishes that through communication techniques, you should be able to guide the person to other services in order for them to receive the highest possible standard of care require in that area.
