There is a course in Hull for managers to develop their skills in person-centred thinking and support their staff to make person-centred thinking a day to day habit. Contact: Tracy Meyerhoff – [email protected]
In IAS managers use the ‘Achievement Tool’ to think about successes in using person-centred thinking. Teams have a ‘person-centred thinking tool of the month’ and focus on this within team meetings and supervision. Contact: Ruth Gorman – [email protected]
In Dimensions managers use the person-centred thinking rating scale to self assess how well they know the person-centred tools and how they want to develop. Contact: Jackie Fletcher – [email protected]
Section 2
Using person-centred thinking tools and approaches to support individuals to have choice and control in their lives
In United Response they have built their capacity in person-centred thinking by training their own person-centred trainers. As well as making sure all the staff and managers are trained in person-centred thinking, the trainers are local champions for person-centred thinking and offer support for managers to develop their skills and implement change.
There are regular ‘surgeries’ for managers; to think together about how they are using and implementing person-centred thinking. United Response won a National Training Award for the difference that person-centred thinking had made in the lives of people they support and the way staff worked. Contact: Ben Harrison - [email protected]
Commissioners in Lancashire worked with a range of providers to enable them to develop their skills and knowledge in person-centred thinking and approaches through a programme called ‘Good2Great’. This was linked to their ‘Preferred Providers’ programme. Contact: Kim Haworth - [email protected]
