Skills and resources for delivering person-centred care

Joint RCOG/BSBOG meeting

31 March 2017

5 Credits / 1 day / RCOG, London

Overview

There is growing awareness of the importance of  a holistic approach to health care delivery. This  approach looks beyond the pathophysiological  basis of illness and takes cognisance of broader  issues such as the the psychosocial determinants of  health and illness and the impact of care provider  behaviour on health outcomes. In contemporary  practice, all health professionals should be  competent in providing tailored information to  individual service users, developing a relationship  of trust with them, enhancing their healthcare  experience and optimizing health outcomes.  Unfortunately reviews such as the Francis Report  and Berwick Review show that this is often not  achieved.  The aim of this Training Day, focused on skills and  resources rather than theoretical underpinnings, is  to assist health professionals (of all specialisms and  all cadres) to deliver person-centred care.
