What does this course cover?

This one day workshop describes a simple six stage process that uses person centred information (for example from person centred reviews, person centred plans or support plans) to drive strategic change and commissioning.

Philip Hope said: "The vision of Putting People First can only be realised by empowering people who use services, their carers and families to play a leading role in shaping and driving the changes they want to see. This means at all levels, from the individual directing their own support to people's engagement in decision making and planning for the health and wellbeing of their whole community. It means finding ways to enable people to design, deliver, and evaluate services so that they become a shared responsibility between citizens, councils and their partners. Working together for change is a simple process for putting people using services at the heart of commissioning."

This one day workshop will give you an understanding of what the process looks like".

The objectives of this workshop are for participants to:

• Have an opportunity to think about the information currently used to inform commissioning and who is involved in the commissioning process.
• Hear examples of how the process has been used.
• Know how person centred and outcome focused reviews are the foundation of the process.
• Explore how this process can be used locally.
  
  

Who is it for?

Commissioners, care managers, reviewing officers and all those involved in service design and delivery.
