It aims to promote independence and focus on the individual and not the individual’s condition or illness (J Mckibbin, 2008, p. 25).

Being transparent, understanding and not judgemental to the clients are the three pillars of the person-centred approach. By being supportive of the service user’s personal perspectives, their values and beliefs shows we value them with respect and dignity.…

After I have completed their sheets I would find the time to pull the student to the side to explain how the Check-In-Check-Out sheet works. An important part to remember is to check to see if the student understands what you are saying. This can be done by asking the student questions and getting them to answer them.…

    Before I came to Kisling Non-Commissioned Officer Academy (NCOA), I thought of myself as a good leader with certain traits and aspects. I believe that if I take care of my airmen, that they’ll take care of me by completing work orders, squadron objectives, or any future events without question.
