Exercise 1
You are going into hospital for a minor operation. What issues would be important to you in arranging this process?
![Page 5: The Organisation and Management of Social Care Services Voice of the service user 26 th April 2005](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081907/5515dfeb55034638038b4b92/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why is it important to hear the voice of the service user? Contribution to knowledge about what is
good practice;
Improve services that they use;

Different approaches organisations can take towards consumers
Scientific/traditional approach
Organisations run in this way are characterised by professional assessments;expert approach, treatment approaches, standards, identifies individuals as problem. Prescribed provision such as child protection & mental health.

Different approaches organisations can take towards consumers
Consumerist approach: two-fold
Visible in the 1980s and 1990s govt. policy building on their notion of ‘consumer citizens’. NHS CC Act 1990 sets out need for LAs to consult users and develop a plan. Emphasis on complaints procedures.
Increasing involvement of users in service planning and delivery.

Consumerist approach-Market approach: Seeks to empower consumers through choice.
Individuals as citizens, able to chose and access services appropriate to their needs. Regular monitoring and evaluation.
- Empowerment/democratic approach: Recognises marginalisation of people, seeks to
give service users a voice and chance to change, sensitivity in provision, giving people control back in their lives. Direct Payments, user –led organisations.

To what extent do social care organisations adopt a consumerist approach and which one? Such approaches key to a learning
organisation; Tokenistic - Consult but no power? People need to be able to make a
choice, not all have the skills (Direct Payments)?
Does such an approach rely on individuals and ignore oppressive social structures and power?
