Philosophy and Values
St George Health Care Group works in partnership with patients, their families, carers and/or significant others to deliver the highest quality of rehabilitative patient centred care. Our services respect the right to dignity, privacy and individuality and are informed by the best available evidence base to help people progress towards optimum functioning and wellbeing.
Fundamental service values are built upon the fact that the patient is the centre of all aspects relating to their care;
- Recognising the central importance of communication in delivering forensic mental health services to our service users
- Formal participation, consultation and involvement in all aspects of care delivery
- Listening and acting on the experiences and views of carers, families and representatives
- Embracing a positive view of diversity
- Respect for rights and individuality of all service users by promoting dignity and privacy as cornerstones of practice
- Regular communication with external agencies
- Best evidence in planning, reviewing and delivering care programmes
- Providing a range of therapeutic approaches meeting person centred needs
- A recognition that all staff contribute to and are part of the therapeutic process
- Robust Clinical Governance processes that are updated regularly
The service values the contribution of all staff to holistic care planning and undertakes professional development within a blame free culture.
