AnnotationPersonalisation for carers means tailoring support to people's individual needs and being part of the discussion about support for the carer and support for the person being looked after. Personalisation also means ensuring that people have wider choice in how their needs are met and re able to access universal services such as transport, leisure and education, housing, health and opportunities for employment regardless of disability. This At a glance briefing includes examples illustrating the views of individual carers on aspects of personalisation. (RH).
