Advocacy is all about helping you to have your voice heard. It’s there to support you in expressing your views, making decisions, and ensuring that others listen to what you want.
About Your Advocacy Rights.
Social workers, doctors, carers, and people who help and support you must talk to you and ask you about things you want in your life.
Things like:
Where You Want To Live:
What Care and Support You May Need:
What Health Treatment You May Need From Nurses and Doctors:
The Best Way To Keep You Safe:
If you find it hard to say what you want about your treatment, care or support, an advocate could help. An advocate can help you to:
- understand your options
- understand your rights
- share your views with support staff, social workers, or family & friends about what you want
Advocates are not part of the care team. Advocates do not work for the council.
