Core Skills

This eLearning module is designed to improve your knowledge of personalised care by providing a holistic view of health and care, highlighting the benefits of personalised care and demonstrating how it improves health outcomes and patient and clinician satisfaction.
Shared Decision Making
30 mins | Level 3
Shared decision making is a process by which people are supported to understand their options and are given the opportunity to consider relevant information that might influence their choices.
Personalised Care and Support Planning
45 minutes | Level 3
Good personalised care and support planning is about having a different kind of conversation about health and care, focusing on what matters to the person as well as their clinical and support needs. This leads to a single plan that is owned by the individual and accessible to those supporting the person.

‘I was sceptical at first about how useful the training would be for me in my role but I’ve been pleasantly surprised with every module and webinar I’ve completed. The courses are well thought out, introduce you to all the difference perspectives and provide you with, and involve you in practical demonstrations. I would definitely recommend the training to other VCSE Sector colleagues’ – Julie
