| Annotation | The White Paper, "Valuing people" (2001; Cm 5086) made explicit the link between care management and person centred planning (PCP). This book provides an analysis of PCP for people with learning disabilities, and supports the implementation of policies promoting social inclusion, deinstitutionalisation and user-centred services. The book is arranged in three parts, the first examining the structures and processes underlying PCP. Part 2 focuses on best practice experience in PCP, in which contributors consider promoting empowerment, the role of communication, and ethnicity and the multicultural context. Part 3 examines key issues for the development and implementation of PCP: clinical support and commissioning; direct payments and barriers to take-up; risk management; and adult protection processes. A final chapter draws together considerations for making PCP and care management work. (RH). |
