Person Centered Care
We take a person centred approach to supporting individuals and we use person centred planning to enable them to work towards the goals they wish to achieve. This means that we tailor what we do and how we do it to suit each person’s specific, and often, complex needs.
They’re individual in their requirements, so the solutions and plans we put in place – with their full input – to help them achieve their goals must be individual too.
What’s in a person centred plan?
We’re always working to improve the person centred planning process so that it’s easier, quicker and more effective for everyone.
We use person centred planning to set out how we will support each person to live the life they want. A person centred plan tells the story of how the individual wants to live their life now, and in the future. We use many different communication tools, so even if an individual finds verbal or written communication difficult, they can still be at the heart of the process of developing their plan.
- What’s important to the individual?
- What they want to achieve?
- Where they want to live?
- What they want to learn?
- What support they need and how they want to use it?
- How they can live a healthy life?
- What their hobbies are?
