Listen to what I’m saying...

 

The film shows health and social care professionals working directly with individuals and their carers. There are no actors, and no prepared scripts. It shows what a difference a person centred approach makes to individuals with many/complex needs.

The film links the Single Assessment Process, as the person centred health and social care framework, with other Department of Health policies e.g. Long Term Conditions with its emphasis on Case Management. It outlines key principles of person centred care that are evolving including holistic assessment, personalised care plans, sharing information, continuity and coordination and self care/self management.

A highlight of the film is to hear the views of the individuals and carers themselves in 3 Case Studies with a Social Worker, Community Matron and a Community Mental Health Nurse.
