ANS 20 - The general population spends over 90% of their time engaged in meaningful activity, whilst people with a learning disability spend only 33% (without active support).
An activity is deemed to contain social engagement when it involves recognisable speech, signs or gestures to attract or retain the attention of another person. For a person with disability if we are to consider engagement as an important factor in quality of life, then we need to extend this beyond the boundaries of the home and into activities that occur outside and at other locations. These may well have an even greater impact and further research in this area would certainly be of benefit.
ANS 21 - Organisational policies and procedures for reporting accidents and incidents play a part in managing the risks surrounding behaviour of concern that people with support needs may have. Risk Assessment is important to identify possible problems that may occur at the organisaton.
Reporting and recording are legal requirements. The report tells the enforcing authorities for occupational health and safety about serious incidents and cases of disease. This means they can identify where and how risks arise and whether they need to be investigated.
It also allows the organization and local authorities to target their work and provide advice on how to avoid work-related deaths, injuries, ill health and accidental loss.
Information on accidents, incidents and ill health can be used as an aid to risk assessment, helping to develop solutions to potential risks. Records also help to prevent injuries and ill health, and control costs from accidental loss.
