We are the coalition of charities in England that stands for
people being in control of their health and care. We have
160 member organisations.
We care about:
• Person centred care
• Living well with long term conditions
• Engaging people in decisions about health, care and
services
• The things that contribute to health and wellbeing
• The role of the voluntary & community sector
4. What we do
• Speak up
• Seek to influence national policy & system
design
• Support leaders & change-makers in the
NHS
• Enable our own sector and the people
they represent
5. What I want to cover:
• What is person centred care?
• What’s the case for it?
• What does good look like?
• Is it happening?
• What stands in the way of it?
• What do leaders need to do?
6. In pairs:
• How does the theme of this workshop relate to
you personally or professionally (or both)?
• What would you like to get out of this session?
7. In your groups
• How person centred is your place of work?
• What has given you the most positivity?
• What has made you most angry?
8. What is person centred care?
• See me! – unique, a whole person, not my
condition/body parts etc
• Care for me - expertly, safely, compassionately,
within guidelines
• Join up your services around me (or my loved
one)
• No decision about me without me – I need
information, choices, control, independence; to
be involved; to get on with my life
With apologies to: person centred care made simple, Health Foundation, 2014
9. What are some of the ingredients?

13. What’s the case for it?
• It’s policy and a requirement
• It’s evidence based - leads to better decisions
and outcomes
• What matters to me is not the same as
“what’s the matter with me”
• It creates social & economic value

me.”

23. “The doctors and nurses and drugs had all helped and
worked miracles to get him into remission, but it was Neil
who was getting dad back to being dad again. It was Neil
that was getting dad back up the garden to see his veg. Neil
meant dad could walk to and cuddle my son, again. Neil
that was giving dad a glimmer of hope that he might get out
walking in his beloved Yorkshire Dales again.
The pressure on Neil and his colleagues is the price we pay
for “innovation”. Do we want a health system that
purchases Michaelangelo robots and FemtoSecond Lasers,
which are shiny and new and high-tech but offer no real
benefit – and may even harm. The opportunity cost of
spending our health service pounds on these shiny
prestigious gadgets are Neil and his colleagues and the
health they create.”

33. Exercise: step 1
On your tables:
What actions would you take to deliberately
minimise your organisations’ engagement
with patients, people and communities?
Think creatively and out of the box! Policy,
process, procedure, behaviour, incentives
etc etc
34. Exercise: step 2
Which of these actions are similar to actual
barriers to being person centred in your
organisations?
35. Exercise: step 3
As leaders, what steps do you need to take
to overcome these barriers and create a
positive climate for person centred
approaches?
36. Being person centred: it’s partly
about technique - eg
• shared decision making
• personalised care and support planning
• health coaching
• education and support for self-management
• peer support
• group activities
• social prescribing
• asset based approaches
• experience based co-design
• co-production models
• patient leadership
37. Being person-centred: it’s hugely
about leadership
• Making what matters to people as the goal for
healthcare
• Treating people as people
• Listening
• Better conversations
• Working collaboratively
• Reaching out
• Letting go/sharing power
• Balancing the medical/technical with the human
• Enabling your staff to do likewise
38. What National Voices has learned
about leadership across boundaries
• The boundaries between the voices
• The boundaries between our sector & those we
represent
• The boundaries between our sector & those that
design & deliver services
• The boundaries between policy & practice
39. What National Voices has learned
about leadership across boundaries
• Bring people together
• Develop common purpose around what
matters to people
• Work with change makers
• Be solutions focussed
40. In pairs
• What have you learned?
• What’s changed in your thinking?
• What will you do differently back at the
ranch?
