How can I use reflection to improve my practice
LPS was introduced in the Mental Capacity (Amendment) Act 2019 and is designed to simplify the process of authorising the care and treatment of a person who lacks capacity to consent to it, where it constitutes a deprivation of liberty. The LPS system introduces new structures, roles, and responsibilities for organisations so it is essential that staff and managers understand the implementation of LPS.
A key-worker role is to provide the best individual care for people they support and carry out effective assessment and support planning. Staff need to know how to motivate individuals to achieve their personal goals and understand how to advocate on their behalf. Staff also need to know how to improve communication between colleagues, individuals, other professionals, and contribute to service improvement.
