Person centred thinking and support plans are beginning to be used with older people. We have worked with older people to describe the person centred thinking skills in the book “person centred thinking with older people; practicalities and possibilities”
The stories shared in this paper show what’s working well and what people are learning about providing truly person centred support that gives older people greater choice and control over any assistance they need
