An essential factor in leading a fulfilling life is the consideration of
both risks and management of risks. It is vital to identify a person's
human rights to be able to make their own choices in life. However,
this right is based on the theory that a person can understand and
evaluate the risks and consequences of choices made. It may be
difficult when working with service user groups where 'mental
capacity' may be a concern, For example, people with learning
disabilities, people with autism, or elderly people. Where there is a
concern about the mental capacity of a service user, a social worker is
expected to carry out a full assessment of the capacity of the user. For
example, their level of understanding, absorbing, and weighing
information in decision-making (The Open University, 2020h). The
principles and legal framework as outlined in The Mental Capacity
Act (2005) must be followed in any decision-making and in ensuring
that the service user's opinion is considered and they are treated with
respect while offering the same level of service available to everyone
else.
Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).
Support and resources to aid a person in finding employment or a
course to study may improve their mental health and situation but
social workers should be aware that having employment doesn't
necessarily mean that a person will be financially stable.
One of the contexts a social worker should consider supporting
informed decision-making is poverty. A person's cultural background
is a vital part of their identity that needs to be considered when
working to support informed decision-making, with a social worker
needing to be aware of any possible stereotyping that may influence
their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
lOMoARcPSD|61746433
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in
(The Open University, 2020). An example of this sort of resource
would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs
and wishes when being supported to make informed decisions.

social workers should be aware that having employment doesn't
necessarily mean that a person will be financially stable.
One of the contexts a social worker should consider supporting
informed decision-making is poverty. A person's cultural background
is a vital part of their identity that needs to be considered when
working to support informed decision-making, with a social worker
needing to be aware of any possible stereotyping that may influence
their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in
(The Open University, 2020). An example of this sort of resource
would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs
and wishes when being supported to make informed decisions.
Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).

One of the contexts a social worker should consider supporting
informed decision-making is poverty. A person's cultural background

needing to be aware of any possible stereotyping that may influence
their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in

would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs

in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing

of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is

informed decision-making is poverty. A person's cultural background

their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate

information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in

Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).

is a vital part of their identity that needs to be considered when

working to support informed decision-making, with a social worker
needing to be aware of any possible stereotyping that may influence
their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in
(The Open University, 2020). An example of this sort of resource
would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs
and wishes when being supported to make informed decisions.
Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).
Support and resources to aid a person in finding employment or a

is a vital part of their identity that needs to be considered when
working to support informed decision-making, with a social worker
needing to be aware of any possible stereotyping that may influence
their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in
(The Open University, 2020). An example of this sort of resource
would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs
and wishes when being supported to make informed decisions.
Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).
Support and resources to aid a person in finding employment or a
course to study may improve their mental health and situation but
social workers should be aware that having employment doesn't
necessarily mean that a person will be financially stable.

families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult

Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside

in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing

Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside

in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing

under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is

their practice (The Open University, 2020). Establishing a support
service that provides a service to Black and Minority Ethnic (BME)
families of people with disabilities is identified to be a difficult
process. It is known that social workers can individually adapt their
approach to support culturally sensitive decision-making, however, it
may prove difficult to support black and minority ethnic groups if
social work departments do not make sure culturally appropriate
information and resources are available, Dominelli (2009) cited in
(The Open University, 2020). An example of this sort of resource
would be having multi-lingual information and accessible aids
available for people who speak limited English to express their needs
and wishes when being supported to make informed decisions.
Taking into consideration that social work involves working alongside
some of the most deprived and vulnerable members of society, living
in poverty is often an underlying factor of a person experiencing
mental health difficulties, with research showing that the demographic
of people in poverty has shifted with the rise in unemployment for
under 25's almost doubling since 2008 or those in lower paid or part-
time jobs increasing across Scotland (Aldridge et al., 2013). There is
also a clear link between unemployment and mental health difficulties
or poverty and mental 'ill' health (Mental Health Foundation, 2016).
Support and resources to aid a person in finding employment or a
course to study may improve their mental health and situation but
social workers should be aware that having employment doesn't
necessarily mean that a person will be financially stable.
One of the contexts a social worker should consider supporting
informed decision-making is poverty. A person's cultural background
is a vital part of their identity that needs to be considered when
