Supporting people to live as independently as possible, for as long as possible, is a guiding principle of the Care Act. But what do we really mean by ‘independent’? New blog: Words that make me go hmmm: independent #RewritingSocialCare #LanguageMatters rewritingsocialcare.blog/independent
@BryonyShannon The word independence often causes a tense feeling in my whole body when I hear it now. Social workers using the word independence in relation to my son has often just meant a barrier to accessing certain support or restriction to him doing certain things or having a go
Thanks to @BryonyShannon for this blog post. I have reservations about the term "independence" in health and social care. I prefer the term "autonomy" (or self-determination). I may need support to live my life, but I want control over how I live my life.

“I can’t even bring myself to get angry with anyone, because they all seem to have meant well, but the process, the system, the protocols, the whatever, take hold and the wrong thing happens even though everyone can see it’s wrong but is powerless to put a stop to it.” ⬇️

Comms people, plse rd @BryonyShannon's latest blog: "In this approach, care is a relationship – not a task or a transaction, and support is sourced – and resourced – in communities...we focus not on ‘what’s the matter’, but on what matters most to people" rewritingsocialcare.blog/2024/03/30/flo…
So, I've listened to lots of views and perspectives about *that* @alzheimerssoc ad. And FWIW they've made me believe even more deeply that it's huge mistake. I've set out why in this new blogpost 'Life after death' makingrightsmakesense.wordpress.com/2024/04/04/lif…

At its best, social care is about hope and flourishing. About reconnecting with what matters. 🌱🌸 #RewritingSocialCare #RewildingSocialCare #LanguageMatters rewritingsocialcare.blog/2023/04/08/rew…

@BryonyShannon Agree choice & control should be the primary focal point. Made a similar argument about ‘independence’ here a while back makingrightsmakesense.wordpress.com/2022/01/31/sho…
Highly recommended for community health teams as well as colleagues in social care
Supporting people to live as independently as possible, for as long as possible, is a guiding principle of the Care Act. But what do we really mean by ‘independent’? New blog: Words that make me go hmmm: independent #RewritingSocialCare #LanguageMatters rewritingsocialcare.blog/independent
If I could have a last supper it would be this 👇🏼 Fish finger sandwiches 🥪 & cava - bloody gorgeous 😋 thank you 🙏 @RiaBPhoto
"We don’t need to talk about independence to ensure that the principles of autonomy and inclusion are at the heart of what we do. We just need to talk about people leading the lives they choose to lead – then work together to make that a reality for everyone" @JonnieMcC
Supporting people to live as independently as possible, for as long as possible, is a guiding principle of the Care Act. But what do we really mean by ‘independent’? New blog: Words that make me go hmmm: independent #RewritingSocialCare #LanguageMatters rewritingsocialcare.blog/independent
Bryony blog ⬇️ independence in social care often means to ‘manage demand’, not to ensure wellbeing and the “outcomes that truly matter to people”. We just need to talk about people leading the lives they choose to lead – then work together to make that a reality for everyone.

@BryonyShannon Great article about language! 'Independence' falls into institutionalized terms like 'peers, siblings, outings'. My son Aaron, who has Down syndrome, refers to independence as 'freedom.' 'Tis best to ask people themselves about language. Otherwise it becomes weaponized.
Thanks to @BryonyShannon for this blog post. I have reservations about the term "independence" in health and social care. I prefer the term "autonomy" (or self-determination). I may need support to live my life, but I want control over how I live my life.

Lovely lovely holiday in Portugal. Would really recommend Olhao
#London Town bound to see one of my besties and sis in law. Tonight, we have the privilege of watching the powerful #LaughingBoy @JSTheatre. A story that shouldn't have had to be written, because we should be way beyond losing our people so cruelly. You're a shero @sarasiobhan 💜
"We just need to talk about people leading the lives they choose to lead – then work together to make that a reality for everyone." 💜😍 #Interdependence is a great step forwards, towards sharing the space, connected together. Us, not them and us. #FlipTheNarrative 💜

@BryonyShannon That’s a good article Bryony - and your reference to participation towards the end has made me think about how it is important - essential- to see independence alongside and linked with purpose and living a good life.

The no-rejection policy we had in place for Free Loaves on Fridays, which meant every submission was accepted, has been described as ‘radical’. Great to hear. But it should just be normal. Publishing needs to be more accessible. Hope Free Loaves is just the start @unbounders
Last night was the most extraordinary evening in my 40 years in the theatre. And now the work continues. ❤️
