The Department of Health grant provided funding to look at how to aggregate the hopes, needs, and wishes of people involved in Person Centred Planning and how to use this evidence to improve services. A process and database have been developed to receive information from Person Centred Planning plans. This pack provides information and engages managers and commissioners in implementing improvements in individual and collective service delivery. It helps to build a blue print for the future shape of service by collating an evidence base. The evidence base consists of detailed information about people’s needs and aspirations that have been collected from person centred plans.

When developing Community Mental Health Services to support people with psychiatric disabilities, European countries are advocating evidence‐based practice (EBP). Individual Placement and Support (IPS) is an evidence‐based model designed to support people in acquiring and maintaining competitive employment. Implementation science is a growing research field, with a focus on components that impact the process of implementing EBP programmes. In this multiple case study, three IPS demonstration sites are followed for two years, in order to describe and analyze barriers and facilitators for implementation, according to constructs described in the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research(Damschroder et al. 2009). The results highlight the importance of strategic networking, as well as the need for planning and preparations carried out before the start of an EBP programme, since deficiencies related to these constructs are difficult to compensate for.

This toolkit explores how person-centred approaches can help effectively transfer statements and learning difficultly assessments to education and health care plans. The guide focuses on young people who are preparing for adulthood – those aged 14-25 who will be transferring from a statement of special educational needs (SEN) or are receiving support at college following a learning difficulty assessment. It provides suggestions of how to skill up the workforce and use information from EHC plans to inform commissioning and develop the market, explaining how to: have good conversations with young people about their aspirations; use person centred practice to develop good education, health and care plans and transfer statements and learning disability assessments to education, health and care plans; deliver preparing for adulthood reviews from Year 9 as described in the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities Code of Practice; achieve quality planning at scale and develop the workforce; and develop a strategic approach to person centred practice and preparing for adulthood pathways.
