| Annotation | The personalisation agenda currently appears as a key strand of the Government's approach to health and social care services. On the face of it, this offers an exciting new future where service users drive the way services are joined up. Given the paucity of evidence to show that the organisationally-driven partnership working of the past decade has delivered real and tangible outcomes for service users, this may be welcome news. There is some suggestion that in future, any talk about partnerships will be this citizen-state interaction, rather than one between health and social care agencies. This paper argues that there is a real danger in suggesting that personalisation negates the need for health and social care agencies to work together in partnership; instead, this interface is more imperative than ever. The authors provide an overview of the debates around personalisation and partnership. They set out the case why partnership should not be forgotten, and indeed will be key in the success of the personalisation agenda. (RH). |
