Dignity Action Month

February Dignity action month February is Dignity Action Month. Dignity Action Month is an annual opportunity for health and social care workers, and members of the public to uphold people's rights to dignity and provide truly memorable activities for people who use care services. Dignity Action Month takes place every February and gives everyone the opportunity to contribute to upholding people's rights to dignity, respect, kindness and compassion. Dignity Action Month aims to ensure people who use care services or who receive support are treated as individuals and are given choice, control and a sense of purpose in their daily lives. By using the whole month it gives lots of opportunities for putting Dignity into our Deeds. This year's theme is 3 Little Deeds: Spread Kindness, respect and compassion - promote Dignity. Your little deeds could be as simple as:                                                                                                                                                                        February dignity action month.
