| Annotation | Person centred approaches are ways of helping older people to live in their communities as they choose, that commission, provide and organise services rooted in listening to what people want. Services strive to adjust to the person, not the other way round. The Centre for Policy on Ageing (CPA) is working to advance person centred care for older people and all adults requiring support. This briefing looks at two aspects of delivering person centred care - the Single Assessment Process (SAP) for older people, and the Common Assessment Process (CAF) for adults - and how these relate to policy implementation. It also draws attention to the CPA's national CAF/SAP learning and development resource (at www.cpa.org.uk/sap). (RH). |
