New Mental Health Blog

The Dignity in Care Campaign, launched on 14 November 2006, by the Minister for Care Services, Ivan Lewis MP, aims to eliminate tolerance of indignity in health and social care services through raising awareness and inspiring people to take action.  To date the campaign has focused on older people; from August 2007, the campaign is being extended to include people with mental health needs. High quality health and social care services should be delivered in a person-centred way that respects the dignity of the individual receiving them. Unfortunately, older people are not always treated with the respect they deserve.
maybe this will change things
