PERSONAL HEALTH PLANS Dr Alison Jackson GP & CCG Long Term Conditions Lead

PERSONAL HEALTH PLANS Personalised care and support planning encourages care professionals and people with LTCs to work together to clarify and understand what is important to that individual. They agree goals, identify support needs, develop and implement action plans, and monitor progress. This is a planned and continuous process, not a one- off event. Coalition for Collaborative Care 2014

VISION To develop an integrated care plan, used by all providers called ‘My Health Plan’, to ensure that people are involved in managing their condition, receive the care they need to live and die well, and that both they and their carers feel better supported to maintain a good quality of life.

COLLABORATIVE CARE AND SUPPORT PLANNING: AN INTRODUCTION https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RV2lek-JXQ

Why? Patients with multiple LTCs are on the rise and we need a more holistic approach to meet their needs Patients with multi-morbidity end up with many care plans that do not work for them or their clinicians Variation in delivery of care plans across the CCG Not person-centred-more disease specific Evidence suggests it leads to more appropriate use of resources ,people more engaged and can self-manage more effectively and adopt a more healthy lifestyle. Need better integrated approach with whole system buy-in so all health and social care professionals are involved.

BENFITS TO PEOPLE WITH LTCs Involvement in the decision making process Better understanding of their condition Develop ability/increase in confidence to self manage Provide consistency and continuity of care Information and sign posting to local services Opportunity to have a central role in service planning, and agreeing what local care should look like Involving carers more in regards to identifying and supporting their health and care needs
