In my previous role at POhWER as an Independent Advocate, I had a case load of 35 beneficiaries that I had to represent and be the voice of that were all disabled and disadvantaged people with various physical and psychological needs, which all needed a centre person approach approach to achieve or resolve the personal circumstances and situations. 

One of my cases, my beneficiary and there organisation providing them the support they needed wete looking looking for additional physical activities for their beneficiaries to participate in that were all in wheelchairs. In that time I managed to research obtain and provide the organization with a hydrotherapy pool that could be tailored to meet my beneficiary personal wishes to meet there gold and the additional health and social activity benefits that comes with it.

Another case a beneficiary had behaviors that challenged and the organization was looking for solutions to improve the beneficiaries behaviors that challenge. The beneficiaries organization believe that they had exhausted over their resources. So I came and assisted them by finding and trying various solutions to improve the beneficiaries behaviors that challenge and

finally I manage to research obtain and negotiate with healthcare professionals and the local authority that my beneficiary would need to have a care assessment carried out so that they could have a one to one support while in their care within independent living 

Paccommodation and while accessing the community.

While working as a Healthcare Assistant at Hampton Care Home. I researched, obtain and negotiated with the beneficiary,Hampton care home and various departments of their local authority to obtain a taxi card scheme that all the residents within Hampton care home could use to gain access to the local community that they could use with a carer or with their family member or friends to improve their quality of life and social interaction then stimulation.

While at Hampton Care Home I was part of a team of eight Healthcare professional that  LLP pp lpwere personally responsible for looking after up to 27 residents at one time throughout the day with all aspects of their care needs, wishes and responsibilities.
