Responsiveness: Services organised so that they meet people’s needs
By responsive, we mean that services are organised so that they meet people’s needs. In residential care, this means that people get the care they need, are listened to and have their rights and diverse circumstances respected.
Sekoia ensures person-centred care and that all care tasks are tailored around the resident and not in keeping with the staff’s routine. By keeping service users at the centre of focus of the system and ensuring that all information pertaining to that resident is available to the carer at the point of care itself, this ensures the service users feel valued.
The Contact Book function is a tool that can be optimally used for Quality Assurance purposes where the residents and their family/relatives, would be able to leave messages/feedback. Also, there is a provision in Observations where any family concerns raised may be recorded by a staff member on the date and time it has been communicated, as well as selecting the nature of the concern and including any details. This ensures concerns are recorded for the attention of management and/or staff and can, therefore, be promptly addressed.
