There are four main approaches to person centred practice, “Pathway” planning, “Maps” planning, “Person centred portfolios” (otherwise known as “Essential Lifestyle Planning”) and “Personal Future Planning.” Discussion will prove that “ each shares characteristics that explicitly emphasise the personal empowerment of service users, in which the principal direction for support generates from those for whom planning is being carried out.”(Langley, 2001) However the use different formats means that each approach focuses on different aspects and my comparison will note strengths and weaknesses, and how they are designed for implementation in different scenarios of person centred practice and planning.

and Beadle-Brown, J.(2004) however the PFP approach does not go beyond this identifying opportunities process to record action plans. Missing is a structure for review or learning, meaning it can assess need and instigate change, but not record outcomes, or what action is needed for the intended result. This may result in underuse of the opportunities identified, and also means that “PFP” unsuitable for use with an individual who does not have the capacity to take advantage of the recognised opportunities independently (or with little support) as it leaves the onus on the person, not those supporting them. While this encourages active participation of the person being planned for (a goal of person centred practice) the emphasis on the initial goal, and the lack of anywhere to record the outcome may result in the goal not being achieved as no-one is accountable for it. The “PFP” approach is more useful for those with higher ability in the disability sector, for example an older person or perhaps someone coming out of a hospital stay related to mental health, who would be getting minimal support, and could be accountable for themselves and could achieve and maintain goals almost independently.
Other approaches to person centred practice are more direct in planning action in order to
1.1 Explain how and why person centered values must influence all aspects of health and social care work:
Explain the terms Person Centred Thinking, Person Centred Planning and Person Centred Approaches and how these support Personalisation
In looking at this model I have found that many people have views that based on discrimination and prejudice they are embedded in today’s society, the attitudes and the surrounding environment often focuses on what a person lacks in terms of disability and focuses on condition or illness or a person’s lack of ability. To combat this prejudice within making space we use person centred care planning it is my responsibility to promote the use of this and to ensure that the support workers who deliver it are fully trained to do so. It is also
Over the year’s different theoretical approaches to group living provisions for adults have changed the way in which we offer our care services and living provisions. Person centred planning has had major impacts and affected group living in many ways,
1 Explain what person-centred thinking is, and how it relates to person-centred reviews and person-centred planning - This is when you as a carer must find a balance between what is important from and for the person. Person-centred planning is when you have to reflect on their capabilities and what support they may require now and in the future so that they can play an active part in their community. So services should be delivered in a way the person chooses not them being slotted into gaps to suit others.
One of key concepts of person centred therapy is the belief that the client has the ability to become aware of their own problems and has the inherent means to resolve them. In this sense,
Person centred practice encourages the individuals active participation. It recognises the person’s right to participate in the activities and relationships of everyday life as independently as possible. The individual is regarded as an active partner in their own care or support rather than a passive recipient.
Outcome based practice is centred on results for people in the following areas: gains in health, mobility and skills, prevention of deterioration, increases in confidence, engagement and feeling they are in control and finally changes in behaviour. It is assessed and planned
Person-centred is about providing care and support that is centred or focused on the individual and their needs. We are all individuals and just because two people might have the same medical condition, for example, dementia, it doesn’t mean that they require the same care or support because they are two different people which means their needs will be different. You need to develop a clear understanding about the individuals that you are working with and their needs, culture, means of communication, likes and dislikes, family and other professional’s
Another strategy that has been developed for dealing with challenging behaviour is person-centred planning. Person centred planning is used in a variety of health and social care setting with service users of all ages from cradle to grave. It is used in elderly care homes to provide the best care for that individual and within families that have children of different ages to help parents give children the best care possible and it is used for individuals with physical impairments such as Down’s Syndrome.

Instead offering people a choice of what is currently available and finding what best fits their needs, person-centred working looks at someone’s needs and built the support package around them. One of the important aspects of person-centred planning is to look at what people are able to do for themselves and to ensure that services are not taking over aspects of a person’s life that they could perfectly well manage without support.
Person Centred Planning allows more control for the customer allowing their individual choices and needs to be catered for and in turn services such as what I as a manager
