Your Rights
If you would like someone to support you or represent you when communicating with any area of your care, please let us know you have an advocate and will include them in communications that you approve. An advocate is someone who will speak on your behalf, or simply support you through a process about which you are uncertain.
Advocates can:
- Support you to speak on your own behalf
- Represent you when communicating with services
- Represent you or assist you with complaints
An advocate does not have to be a formal representative it can be anyone you trust such as a relative or friend. Client Centred Home Care offers advocacy services so please feel free to ask us if you require this support. Alternatively, there are other organisations who you may prefer to use, such as the ones listed below.
