Dignity Champions
Posted: 10/11/2024
Dignity Champions often ask how they can evaluate their services and ensure they are delivering a good quality service that respects a person’s dignity? Being treated with dignity and respect is vital for our wellbeing as it makes us feel valued and worthy. The National Dignity Council believe that ‘Dignity is Everybody’s Business’ and as such we have the power to affect change on both an individual and an organisational basis to ensure that everyone is treated in a dignified and respectful manner.
Therefore they have devised a number of questions that lead to a series of dignity audits based on the work done by other organisations and with their full permission.
The purpose of these audits is to provide the user with a tool to assess and evaluate whether a service has dignity and compassion at its heart.
