Pillar 3: The people who work with me are wise and kind
In Stockport people are at the heart of everything we do. During the Learning Disability conference it was clear that some people with Learning Disabilities have developed good working relationships with the people who are working with them. We want to support people with a learning disability to live a ‘Gloriously Ordinary Life.
You said we want:
- our rights to be at the centre of all discussions
- good working relationships with the people that we work with in social care and health
- support to promote our independence to have ‘Gloriously Ordinary Lives
- our annual health check and care act reviews to be person centred and meaningful
Next steps:
- The Learning Disability Partnership board will focus on working together (co-production) to influence the wider system around the needs of people with Learning Disabilities
- continue to drive best practice through training and development opportunities for staff focusing on national best practice and guidance
- ensure people and carers have access to good quality information and advice
- continue to implement the Think Carers Strategy with a particular focus on people with Learning Disability
