Your ideas attitudes and beliefs are your

Your experiences, attitude and beliefs are part of what makes you who you are. They affect how you think, what you do and how you do it. Your background, upbringing, experiences and relationships will all have played a part in the way you see things. Sometimes your attitudes and beliefs could lead you to assume things about people that are not right or fair. It is important that you realise this and develop self awareness so that you can learn to check that this does not happen. You should take the time to learn about and understand the different attitudes and beliefs of others so that you can work with individuals in a way that takes these into account.

Conflicts between personal and professional/ organisational values

When we work in social care we need to be aware that some of our personal values might be at odds with the values which we are required to hold with our work.
Previous experience in our private and working lives and the way we have been socialised and educated together with those with whom we socialised and live, can be positive or negative influences on what think and do.
Through education and professional training we are able to become aware of the impact of our actions, identify and address our prejudices and assimilate the values of our profession.
When we take on a post in social care we are agreeing to hold and apply the values of the profession and have a contractual obligation to work with them.
