4A Promote self-esteem and confidence
Being in need of support from service providers can affect a person’s self-esteem and confidence. For some people the nature of their issues may lead to them feeling stigmatised in the community. For others not being able to do what they used to be able to, or what their friends can do, can impact on how they feel about themselves. You can promote the person’s self-esteem and confidence by communicating with them in a supportive and positive manner.
