Sut y mae Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn gweithio i sicrhau bod pob awdurdod lleol yn sicrhau bod weithwyr gofal cymdeithasol a darparwyr gofal cymdeithasol, gan gynnwys darparwyr gofal preifat dan gontract drwy awdurdod lleol, yn cydymffurfio ag arferion cathetreiddio diogel?
In most Health Board areas catheterisation is only undertaken by trained registered nurses unless the patient is self-catheterising or a relative/carer is trained. Where catheterisation is delegated to social care workers, this is done on a named individual basis, with the care worker only being able to undertake action for that individual once trained and deemed competent and for no other individual. This is monitored and supervised by the delegator.
All health care professionals who delegate activities are accountable to their regulators and are required to follow delegation guidelines set out in ‘All Wales Guidelines for Delegation 2010’ and ‘Third Party Delegation - The Required Governance Framework 2016’.
