Our Vision, Mission And Values

Our Vision, mission and Values

The underlying principle of Cephas Care Ltd. Is to treat others, as we would wish to be treated ourselves – with respect, dignity, and kindness. We manage our services to create an inclusive environment where people are happy and can remain as independent as they can, and where staff feel motivated and valued.

We extend our philosophy of caring into all aspects of what we do by demonstrating respect for people, life, and the environment within which they reside.

Our Pupose

Cephas Care Ltd was established in 1993 and throughout that time our guiding principles have remained the same but have changed in the description as care has evolved. We want our aims and objectives to be a shared journey between us all and as such our commitment to that journey is as follows:

  • To work in a manner that promotes an outcome-based, person-centred approach to care and the delivery of that care supports individual well-being, no matter who the customer is or their background.
  • To not discriminate against anyone because of their Race, Religion, Age, or Sexuality
  • To support individuals to follow their religious beliefs through support and encouragement.
  • To encourage and include customers, relatives, staff, and others who are involved as part of an ongoing journey of care and discovery.
  • To encourage customers to identify outcomes as part of a sharing process with us, promoting learning and progression through supporting people in an enabling way, safeguarding individuals from harm.
  • To provide the people we employ with the skills and knowledge to deliver a person-centred service that is Safe, Effective, Well Lead, Responsive and Caring.
  • To ensure our staff team has access to regular supervisions and the ability to have the support that meets their employment needs.
  • To provide the levels of care that we are commissioned to provide both either by the local authority or privately.
