Person Centred Thinking
Adult Social Care
Tania Hudson
The Essential Standards of Quality and Safety are based
on the outcomes that people using a service will
experience.
They are designed to help providers to comply with;
– Health and Social Care Act 2008
– (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2010
– CQC (Registration) Regulations 2009
The regulations describe the standards that people using
services have a right to expect.
They outline what providers should do to comply with the
regulations
The regulations are grouped into six key areas:
- Involvement and information
- Personalised care, treatment and support
- Safeguarding and safety
- Suitability of staffing
- Quality and management
- Suitability of management
At the core of the standards is the
importance of person-centred practice
CQC defines person centred practice as . . .
Putting the person who uses services at the centre of
their care, treatment and support, ensuring that
everything that is done is based on what is important to
that person from their own perspective.
Put simply, its a way of asking what people
want, the support they need and how they can
get it.
As providers, you will want to know your staff
have the knowledge and skills to put this into
practice.
What knowledge, skills
and understanding do
our team have of person
centred thinking tools
and approaches?
How do we support staff
members individually in
developing competence
in using person centred
tools and approaches?
How do we support
and develop as a team
in using person centred
approaches and sharing
best practice?
One way of meeting the essential standards of quality and
safety is through staff training.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) state that all staff
should receive a comprehensive induction that takes
account of recognised standards within the sector and is
relevant to their workplace and their role.
The relevant induction in this context means the Common
Induction Standards.

How do we ensure staff know about;
-
an individuals personal history?
what's important to the person?
what their individual gifts and qualities are?
what level of support the person requires?
their communication methods?
what they want for the future?
how to support friendships and relationships?
how to support individuals to be part of the community?
In Person Centred Thinking training staff can experience
using person centred thinking tools and consider when they
may be useful.

These tools can help
build a one page profile…
One page profiles
• A good starting point is for each person to have a ‘one
page profile’
• A snapshot of a person; characteristics, etc. that the
person is happy to share.
• A positive and quick introduction to the person and the
things that matter to them.
• Focuses on the person’s preferences, strengths,
interests and the things that others like and admire about
them.
• Can ‘signpost’ to other important information such as
moving and handling guidelines.
Like and admire…..
Including ‘what people like and admire about me’ on a
one page profile can provide an instant positive image of
the person, helping us see the unique individual they are.
How often do we tell someone what we like and admire
about them?
Family, friends and staff can all be asked what they like
and admire about the person.
IMPORTANT TO?
What makes you
happy, content and
fulfilled?
IMPORTANT
FOR?
What keeps you
healthy and safe?
