Title:

Personalisation and human rights: a discussion paper

Publisher:

Sheffield: Centre for Welfare Reform, 25p.

Abstract:

In the context of anticipated changes in health and social care structures in Scotland, including implementation of the national strategy for self-directed support, this paper outlines a vision of values and principles to govern approaches to the introduction of greater personalisation. It argues that the broad policy concepts and detailed practice of personalisation should be seen as rooted in, and informed by, human rights. It discusses the roots of personalisation, personalisation and coproduction, the evolution of public policy, personalisation and human rights, research and evaluation, and personalisation and its human rights deficit. It contends that the Scottish national self-directed support strategy and associated legislation should implement a personalised system of care and support in a way which highlights the human rights principles at its core.
