It is important that children and young people are at the centre of the care planning process, so they feel that they are actively involved in their own care. Detailed and effective care planning can ensure all of their needs, wishes and preferences are met, and care packages should never be made without the involvement of the child or young person concerned.
Being able to meet the holistic needs of children and young people is key to ensuring that we are not just focussing on one aspect of a child’s needs, but ensuring all areas are considered and support is put in place for whatever the needs may be.
Mae'n bwysig bod plant neu bobl ifanc wrth wraidd y broses cynllunio gofal, er mwyn iddynt deimlo eu bod yn cael eu cynnwys yn eu gofal eu hunain. Gall gwaith cynllunio gofal manwl ac effeithiol sicrhau bod eu holl anghenion, dymuniadau a dewisiadau'n cael eu bodloni, ac ni ddylid byth creu pecynnau gofal heb gynnwys yr unigolyn dan sylw.
Mae gallu diwallu anghenion cyfannol plant a phobl ifanc yn allweddol i sicrhau ein bod nid yn unig yn canolbwyntio ar un agwedd ar anghenion plentyn, ond yn sicrhau bod pob maes yn cael ei ystyried a bod cefnogaeth yn cael ei rhoi yn ei le ar gyfer beth bynnag yw'r anghenion.
Being child-centred is about listening to and learning about what children and young people want from their lives, what they did and enjoyed in the past, and helping them to think about what they want now and in the future.
The child or young person’s experience, history, culture, beliefs, preferences, family, relationship, informal networks and community are all key to establishing a way forward and meeting their needs to enable positive progress. Family, friends, professionals and services need to work together with the individual to make this happen.
Mae gweithredu mewn ffordd plentyn-ganolog yn golygu gwrando ar unigolion a dysgu am yr hyn y maent am ei gael o'u bywydau, yr hyn a wnaethant a'r hyn y gwnaethant ei fwynhau yn y gorffennol, a'u helpu i feddwl am yr hyn y maent yn dymuno ei gael nawr ac yn y dyfodol.
Mae profiad, hanes, diwylliant, credoau, dewisiadau, teulu, cydberthynas, rhwydweithiau anffurfiol a chymuned y plentyn neu'r person ifanc i gyd yn allweddol i ganfod ffordd ymlaen a diwallu ei anghenion er mwyn galluogi cynnydd cadarnhaol. Mae angen i aelodau o'r teulu, ffrindiau, gweithwyr proffesiynol a gwasanaethau gydweithio â'r unigolyn er mwyn sicrhau bod hyn yn digwydd.
