E1 Describe three different types of setting which provide care and education for children in your area. This must include one example from the list: statutory sector, voluntary sector and private sector. There are many different types of settings which provide care and education for children in my area. The statutory sector involves all the organisations that are set up, controlled and funded by the government or local authority for example: St. Anthony's Primary School. This type of sector is funded by people who pay tax or national insurance. Another type of setting which provides care and education for children in my area is sure start centre. This is a voluntary sector and they are run by organizations.. ''Money for voluntary organisations comes from a variety of sources that include donations, fund-raising, grants from central or local government, lottery grants and fees for the services they provide.'' (Thornes 2008 pg4) The private sector is owned by an individual or company and aim to make a profit which people will pay for their child to attend such as: Burnham Montessori School.

Ownership, Aims and Objectives. In this assignment I have been asked to research a variety of companies and put them into three main areas of ownership. These are: the private sector, the public sector and the charity and voluntary organisation sector.
OWNERSHIP, AIMS & OBJECTIVES Introduction In this assignment I have been asked to research a variety of companies and put them into three main areas of ownership. These are: the private sector, the public sector and the charity and voluntary organisation sector. Within the private sector there are six more types of ownership, these are: * Sole Trader * Partnership * Franchise * Co-operative * Private Limited Company * Public Limited Company Saddleworth Museum The Saddleworth museum is a small business as it operates at maximum across a single town. Saddleworth museum is in the public sector. The purpose of Saddleworth museum is to provide entertainment and education about the local history. The service is provided for local people and tourists that may be interested in the subject. The main objective of the business is to make a minimal profit which can help the business run for longer so it can still inform the public about local history. Break even means that the company makes no profit, whilst not being in debt (or usually just 'breaking' out of debt). If the business made a profit it would probably use it to keep the museum running or hold an event, maybe even give it to a charity. It may develop the parts of the museum that are struggling, or buy maintenance. Employees are all volunteers and probably do not get paid. The type of people that would be suited for
Discuss whether the government or the private sector should provide health care in the UK
Discuss whether the government or the private sector should provide health care in the UK Health care in the UK is classed as a merit good because it provides more private benefits for consumers than they actually realise. Merit goods such as health care also have beneficial positive externalities for the economy in terms of increase output and for the UK population as a whole. The health care system will reduce the amount of ill people in the population, which creates a positive externality because people will be happier. There are many economic and social benefits of the health care service including an improved quality of life. There is now so?lid evidence that improvements in medical care will pay off in the long run in terms of healthier people and longer lives. Plus the life expectancy is set to rise in the UK if further improvements in health care are continued. An economic benefit of the health care system is that the NHS is the largest employer in the UK with over 1.3 million people employed in England alone. Health is said to be the biggest aspect of government expenditure, which is also beneficial to the economy as a whole. The government has to choose a specific part of the economy to invest in, so by investing in health care, the government has to decrease investment somewhere else. The opportunity cost of the government spending money on the health care

Evaluate the requirements of health care workers in terms of providing a competent workforce for the health sector
D1-Evaluate the requirements of health care workers in terms of providing a competent workforce for the health sector Lord Darzi published High Quality Care for All in 2008 which looked at workers and patients experience of the NHS. A key part of High Quality of Care is ensuring that patients are treated with compassion and respect and in a safe and well managed area. The NHS relies on its staff to deliver this. Staff need to be competent, to have the skills, knowledge they need to do the job, as well as sticking to the values of the NHS and patient centered care. A key skill for health workers is reliability which is very important in a patient centred care, particularly as much of the work in hospitals works on the basis of shifts. So turning up late or not at all not only impacts on the patient who can not then be seen and then has a negative view of the service, but on other colleagues who are not able to finish their shift on time. Reliability means not only turning up on time, but carrying out the various tasks on time, so that patients do not have to wait longer than necessary because too much time has been spent with the previous patient, or do not feel as though they are being hurried along so the health care can get back on schedule and deal with other tasks. Making patients wait means they become irritated, and feel that their time is not really appreciated,
p1: explain the purpose and role of research for the health and social care sector
P1: Explain the purpose and role of research for the health and social care sectors. Research is an intellectual investigation to get a greater knowledge or understanding of events, behaviours and theories. Research is very active and systematic process of inquiry aimed at revising, discovering and interpreting facts and also for law establishment and theories. Many organisations have research as an essential tool, though it is exceptional in the health and social care industry. Research in health and social care is for: * Demographic. Prior to planning the delivery of services. Establishing population patterns and statistics. * Epidemiology. Exploring patterns of disease. * Quality assurance. Feedback from service user about service. * Hypothesis. Exploring theories. * Knowledge. To extend understanding of theories * Reviewing and monitoring changes in practice. When health and social care practitioners are planning a new service they need to do research which focuses on the demographic data such as: population size, age, gender etc. This is so the practitioners can predict and plan for the future. Epidemiology investigates the cause, prevalence and spread of disease. Therefore the feedback from this research is very important and it is to help develop strategies to prevent and treat diseases. An example of this research is the United Kingdom Childhood Cancer
Explain the role of effective communication and interpersonal interaction in a health and social care context.
Glodie Musuele unit 1 p1 P1 Explain the role of effective communication and interpersonal interaction in a health and social care context. Informal communication When we use informal communication, it is normally when we are communicating with friends colleagues and also family. When using informal language it can sometimes make it harder to communicate and understand. For example when people are texting or even talking or on a chat forums. A lot of people might use this kind of language through arguments or debates. The meaning of context is the different places in which communication can take place in. Informal communication is the way that you would communicate or talk to someone you knows really well. Sometimes you may use words that other people won’t understand with family members or friends. Just like in certain areas or communities there might be a certain way that the people from there would talk, for example someone in the south of England might say ‘hey mate how’s it going?’ this might not be seen as a welcoming thing in a different community. Certain people wouldn’t be able to understand certain informal words so that is why you sometimes have to adjust your use of language. I observed an informal interaction between two 4 year olds, who
Role of The Ombudsman
PUBLIC LAW 1: ASSIGMENT 2 971 Words An essay on the ombudsmen _____________________________________________________ This essay considers the role of ombudsmen in resolving disputes in contrast to the role played by the judiciary. In answering this question it will be noted that the ombudsman system does not overlap with the judiciary, but rather, it closes the gaps created by the judiciary. It will be argued that although the system has advantages over the judiciary, it also has limitations. Though the question refers to ombudsmen in general, the essay will make reference to the Parliamentary Commissioner for Administration in discussing the role played by ombudsmen how this role may be improved. Introduction The ombudsman has emerged as an effective method of dispute resolution in today's world. Its ideologies have been accepted widely as an attractive alternative to litigation. Consequently, it provides the public with remedial action where none is available through courts. Unlike courts, the ombudsman's services are cost effective, flexible, and informal. These qualities have contributed to its success in seeking justice against bad decisions. The origin The ombudsman concept has existed since the 19th century. Sweden was the first country to introduce an 'ombudsman' whose role was to investigate complaints from ordinary citizens.1 However, it wasn't until 1967
Types of communication and interpersonal interactions
Ruslana Radeva Types of communication and interpersonal interactions Communication in health and social care with the service user and service provider plays a very important role. It is needed to develop positive relationships and share information with people that are using the services. It’s also needed to be able to communicate well with service user’s families or carers as their own colleagues and other professionals. There are two ways to communicate in health and social care either verbally or non-verbally. Health and social care settings can be voluntary, statutory or non statutory. Statutory care settings are governmental such as NHS and Non-statutory means it is not laid down in law. Laws passed by Parliament are statute and go into the statute book. Non statutory can be regulations that are set by ministries but don't go onto the statute book. Guidance and policies can also be regarded as non-statutory, though their provisions may still be expected to be met by various controlling bodies and local and central government. Service users are usually the people who use a service like for example old people are the service users to the residential homes as well as children are the service users to nurseries. You might engage in a conversation in a residential home, a hospital, in a nursery, in a care home, etc. You are likely to be communicating with doctors,
Explain the types of social care provision and trusts
In England there is an estimated 21,900 organisations that are involved in providing and organising social care for adults and an estimated number of 48,300 establishments that employ adult social care staff in proving and organising such service. These adult social care organisations are growing and increasing over the years as the number of jobs in the service is growing in the workforce. In general, there are three key elements in the provision within the social care sector: * Statutory; * Voluntary; * Private. Statutory care provision means that the type of care is provided by the government, such as the NHS for the UK. These involve general and regional hospitals and also primary care trusts. Voluntary provisions include national and local charities. The national charities are funded by people all around the nation and can be worldwide as well. They can include major providers that support people who are in need of care alongside their families in the UK to improve their lives. However, a local charity is done on a smaller scale and helps care services in the local area, for example a hospice. Private provisional care means the care is provided to the patient directly while they pay at the time of the service. Many private and independent practises are available all around the country that only offers their services on a private base which patients have to pay
