Shift in mindset Belief in the past Belief now Patients have to change, not us. We need more staff. Only if we are doing something are we providing health and care Belief now We have to change first to facilitate change in our patients. We do not need more staff but we need to work differently, in a more integrated way and in real partnership with our community. A good quality conversation is itself a health and care intervention. Gradually in Fife, I am finding our mindset is shifting. I generated this list of changes with healthcare staff involved in the Shine project. Interestingly now, they have asked to change the language to people not patients, health and social care not just healthcare, staff, not just doctors and nurses.
