Hi kerry,

Don't worry I'm not sure what you are being asked either.

Individuals have rights to all of these - they are the 7 Principles of Care. You will find them embedded in most of the care legislation and codes of practice such as the Care Standards Act and Care Standards and Code of Practice for Social Workers.

Hope that helps
