Person-Centred Practice for Positive Outcomes

505 – PERSON-CENTRED
PRACTICE FOR POSITIVE
OUTCOMES

LO 1
1.1
There are various kinds of theories and values on the basis of which Person- centred outcome-
based practice is based upon. Some of them are:
 Building Block framework: person centred positive outcome- based service is based upon
some developmental building blocks. It is completely based upon type of services that are
being provided to patient or service users. For example, building blocks for achieving
positive outcome are service delivery, finances, leadership, health workforce, health
information system, access to essential medication. These are building blocks of person-
centred practice and for achievement of positive outcome it is important to cover all the
above identified building blocks can help in achieving positive outcome such as: improved
health, responsiveness, social and financial protection, improved efficiency.
 Seven P’s: these are some of the most important valuers to be considered during positive
practice. These seven P’s are:
 Person centred by ensuring that person is at the centre (Mora and et. al., 2017).
 Partnership: by working closely with person and other support workers.
 Planned: by creating positive support plan fur ensuing understanding
 Positively focusing upon preventatives
 Purposeful: using functional assessment for assessing reason for behaviour
 Process driven: following process for achieving positive outcome
Adoption of seven P’s can help in ensuing active participation of all the service providers,
person. Not only this, it would further provide support to person so that they can take positive
decisions for achievement of positive practice.

In order to drive organizational culture that values positive outcome and person- centred
practice, first of all I will check whether out organizational culture is committed to value positive
outcome, and person- centred practice. I will try to ensure that all the employees are well aware
of values and resulting polices of organization so that they can understand ways in which they
are expected to behave. I will further focus upon ensuing that, principles of equality as being

promoted within organization as an important value or not as it directly help in providing equal
opportunities to all the staff members.
In order to drive organizational culture that values positive outcome and person- centred
care following practices can be adopted.
 Self-acceptance: we can focus upon making employees self-acceptable i.e. by enhancing
their satisfaction level so that they are happy with their experience.
 By developing positive relationship with others and establishing friendship
 By providing freedom to make choices and expressing one’s own feelings value of values
positive outcomes and person- centred practice can be facilitated
2.2
I will try to focus upon ensuring that all the staff members and colleagues are aware of value
and importance for organization of training and health as well as care needs of employees. This
will directly help in ensuing that appropriate training is provided to employee for promoting
person centred practice. For example, care certificate training is provided to employees in order
to make them understand importance of person- centred care. I will try to ensure that all the
colleagues and other staff members have access to required information related to training and
fulfilment of health care needs and have right to provide their point of view and participate in
discussion for decision making. This will easily help in implementing plan for development of
promoting person-centred practice. I will further focus upon developing training program form
colleagues and other staff members where they will be provided with basic knowledge and
importance of person cantered practice, ways in putting person at the centre help in ensuing
provision of high quality of care and fulfilment of person.
2.3
When person centred practice approach is adopted it is extremely important to evaluate
changing needs of person so that change in approach can be brought (Phelan and et. al., 2017).
But management of others work with respect to approaches to meet changing needs of individual
is important. I have faced a situation in which overnight health of person deteriorate and patient
was required to be admitted to emergency immediately. In this situation me and my team
members were required to adopted care approach for meeting changed needs of individual. As
per the previous records and previous needs of individual, person was comfortable in going to
bed till 9 PM and wake up at 6 AM. But due to sudden deteriorating health of person, all my
2

team members were asked to report to emergency and adopt change in approach of person care
as per current situation. More experienced care persons were required during that situation as per
deteriorating health of person. In order to ensure that all the other team members understand
change in need of person, emergency meeting was organized, every team members was free to
ask for any questions and were introduced to new members so that coordination and interaction
between them can be done.
2.4
For management of resources various strategies were used so that positive outcome of
person can be achieved. Change within needs and requirement of individual were identified and
accordingly new task to be fulfilled were identified (Potaka-Osborne and Gifford, 2018). For
example, due to deteriorating health of individual he required additional care and support
workers to look after him. So, for this redeployment of staff members were done so that they can
engage in new identified task. This restructuring was one of the main approaches that was used
for proper management of current resources so that changing preferences, needs and strengths of
individual can be achieved. Assessment of target goals achieved by every team members were
also done for identifying whether needs of individual were being fulfilled or not. This assessment
further helps in bringing changes within roles and responsibilities of team members so that
preferences and person are valued and fulfilled. This assessment further helps in effective
management of resources for achieving positive outcome.
2.5
In order to support individual in making healthy choices following resources will be managed:
 Funding and services: As a manager I will focus upon developing a budget as per service
requirement of user. Continuous monitoring of usage of funds and service required by service
users will be done. This management and balance between services and funds will directly
help and support users in making healthy choices.
 Lay carers: due to deteriorating health of service users from existing team members, a lay
carer is provided to individual so that they can be supported and provided service at home as
well. It is one of the most important way of managing resources and providing support to
individuals so that they can take effective decisions.
