| Annotation | Person-centred planning refers to a variety of specific approaches to helping people who use social care services to plan their own futures. While it is most commonly used in the fields of physical disability and learning difficulty, person-centred planning also relates to ideas around rights, empowerment and user inclusion. This report explores why and how person-centred planning has spread for learning disability services to influence the whole of adult social care. It describes how person-centred planning began; discusses the existing evidence base; looks at organisational structures and working culture; explores issues relating to service users and their families; and identifies the barriers to person-centred planning from the perspectives of both users and frontline staff. The report is relevant to debates about individual budgets, self-directed support and In Control. Recommendations for future research note the need for more focus on users, the development of practice guidelines, and a longitudinal study assessing the outcomes of person-centred planning. (RH). |
