Strengths-based practice: Film

This resource is part five of the Learning Pathway on strengths-based working. Our pathways guide you through connected resources on a key topic to support self-directed learning and development. Find out more about Learning Pathways.

If you are currently working through this Learning Pathway please find the link to the next resource below to continue on your learning journey.

This film looks at strengths-based working. Featuring Gavin Rough, who has experience of adult social care, watch the film to find out more about the ways in which practitioners can approach assessments, reviews and conversations in a strengths-based way. Gavin has also featured in a second film exploring ways in which practitioners can support good digital conversations with adults and carers.

• How can you ensure the language you are using with people is clear and accessible?
• When planning and preparing for a conversation how do you ensure it is in the right time and place for the person, as much as possible?
• When having conversations about safety, how do you frame this to ensure the persons goals and aspirations are at the centre?
• What strategies do you have to get to know a person?
