Person-centred thinking and planning are approaches that enable people using social care and health services to plan their future, and use a personal budget to commission personalised services. Creating Person-Centred Organisations is a guide for organisations who want to deliver personalised services. Key issues covered include attending to the vision, strategy and business planning of the organisation, as well as organisational processes, culture and managing change. Drawing on the pioneering work of the social care charity United Response, the authors provide a wealth of practical tools and techniques to enable organisations within health, social care and the voluntary sector to use person-centred thinking tools and approaches to move towards becoming person-centred organisations. This is an essential guide for managers and leaders within private, statutory and voluntary organisations. Stephen Stirk is Director of Human Resources at the social care charity United Response. He has had over 30 years' experience in human resources, organisation development and line management positions, including specialism in organisation design and development with GlaxoSmithKline. Helen Sanderson is Director of Helen Sanderson Associates. She has written extensively on person-centred thinking, planning, community building and Individual Service Funds. She has worked with a range of providers to enable them to deliver more personalised services. She is co-author (with Jaimee Lewis) of A Practical Guide to Delivering Personalisation: Person-Centred Practice in Health and Social Care (Jessica Kingsley Publishers).

The Individual Service Funds Handbook is the definitive guide to one of the most innovative forms of personal budget in health and social care. It gives a clear explanation of what Individual Service Funds (ISFs) are, how to use them effectively and includes all the information you need in order to implement them in your organisation. The Handbook spans a range of settings, including a dementia care home, supported living and residential homes for adults with learning disabilities and people who use mental health services. It also sets out guidelines and templates which can be used when implementing ISFs, addressing key practical concerns including: how to put together effective support plans, and how to ensure that ISFs are delivered in a person-centred way, how to overcome organisational complexities in implementation and supporting managers. A one-stop resource for anyone wanting to understand the potential of ISFs, the Handbook is required reading for service providers, commissioners, and those engaged in person-centred practice and personalisation, including user-led organisations.

Person-Centred Practice in Health and Social Care

A Practical Guide to Delivering Personalisation

Gill Bailey

Personalisierung beruht auf personzentrierter Pflege und konzentriert sich auf die Frage, wie man Menschen mit Demenz in Dingen, die ihr Leben betreffen, mehr Wahl- und Entscheidungsfreiheit einräumen kann, und welche Unterstützung sie benötigen, um Teil ihrer Gemeinschaften bleiben zu können. Dieses Handbuch erläutert, wie Menschen mit Demenz durch einfache, evidenzbasierte personzentrierte Praktiken individuell betreut und unterstützt werden. Die Autorinnen stellen mit klaren Worten dar, was Personalisierung ist, was man heute unter personzentriertem Denken versteht und wie personzentrierte Praxis aussieht, wobei sie anhand vieler lebendiger Beispiele zeigen, wie Personalisierung im ambulanten Setting sowie in der stationären Versorgung bereits erbracht wurde. Sie helfen der Leserschaft, sich diverse personzentrierte Praktiken anzueignen. Ferner beschreiben sie Strategien zur Bildung harmonisierender Teams aus der Person mit Demenz, ihren Pflegekräften und den Ehrenamtlichen. Im letzten Kapitel wird ein fotokopierbares Assessmentinstrument für Pflegeheime vorgestellt, das ihnen hilft, ihre Fortschritte bei der personalisierten Unterstützung von Menschen mit Demenz zu erkennen und ihr Angebot zu verbessern. Die angeführten Praxisbeispiele sind sehr real und berührend; sie unterstreichen, dass hier nicht lediglich eine Trockenübung stattfindet. Wer sich für personzentrierte Pflege einsetzt, muss dieses Buch unbedingt lesen. Prof. Dawn Brooker
