Time to Talk & Time to Listen
Recognising the need to take ‘Time to Talk & Time to Listen’
A vital part of the Regulation 44 visit process is the ability to gain an opinion of the quality of care provided in the home through direct consultation with relevant people. However, it is an unfortunate fact that this crucial part of the process is too frequently diluted or passed over due to various reasons such as, time constraints, lack of interest, daily activities and disengagement of children.
However, at Platinum Care Consultancy we guarantee that on each Regulation 44 visit we will make, ‘Time to Talk & Time to Listen’.
We will work with the service provider and managers to ensure we are able to access quality consultation with significant people including the children and their families.
We will offer flexible visiting or contact times including evenings and weekends, enabling the greater opportunity to engage children in quality consultation.
We will offer various methods of enabling children to understand our role and share their views. This will include an email address and posters/leaflets explaining this.
We will ensure that each individual report is embedded with evidence of our quality consultation.
Providing a consistent Regulation 44 visitor will also ensure that barriers to engagement from the children can be removed.
