Training and support that builds the knowledge, skills and confidence for care that starts with what matters to the person
Personalised care is about looking at the needs of the individual as a whole and working with them to prepare a care plan that suits their personal needs. It is delivered based on what matters to them and their individual strengths, needs and preferences.
It is one of the five major, practical changes to the NHS service model in the NHS Long Term Plan.
There are six components to this: shared decision making, personalised care and support planning, enabling choice, social prescribing and community based support, supported self-management, and personal health budgets.
