Personalisation for older people: residential care

The film is introduced by the manager of a residential care home for older people with dementia who talks about the importance of understanding the individual, their interests, background and personal history. The benefits of this approach are illustrated by Marjorie’s story. Marjorie has been supported and encouraged to take up her interest in music again and it has brought pleasure to her life. There is an emphasis on relationship-based, individual person-centred care, rather than a functional approach to basic personal care. This is important to maintaining dignity and well-being. The latter half of the film looks at the family and carer support that the service also provides as part of person-centred care.

We analysed 50 Care Quality Commission care home inspection reports to identify factors that the reports indicate facilitate or hinder the delivery of personalised residential care in England.

This paper examines how care home managers in England conceptualised the approach to delivering personalised care in the homes they managed. The researchers conducted interviews with care home managers and mapped the approaches they described on two distinct characterisations of personalised care prominent in the research and practitioner literature: the importance of close care relationships and the degree of resident choice and decision-making promoted by the care home. The researchers derived three ‘types’ of personalised care in care homes. These conceptualise the care home as an ‘institution’, a ‘family’ and a ‘hotel’. This study adds a fourth type, the ‘co-operative’, to propose a type that merges proximate care relationships with an emphasis on resident choice and decision-making. This study concludes that each approach involves trade-offs and that the ‘family’ model may be more suitable for people with advanced dementia, given its emphasis on relationships. While the presence of a range of diverse approaches to personalising care in a care home market may be desirable as a matter of choice, access to care homes in England is likely to be constrained by availability and cost.

This report presents the findings of research into the barriers to achieving more personalised care in care homes for older people and measures being taken in some care homes to improve personalisation. The report sets out a brief overview of the concept of ‘personalisation’, and its close relatives, ‘choice and control’ and ‘person-centred care’; a discussion of the development of policy and practice guidance surrounding personalisation in England; findings from a review of studies of approaches, effects and contexts of personalisation in care homes; findings from the analysis of interviews with care home managers; and the results of an analysis of examples of, and barriers to, personalisation reported in CQC inspection reports. The report also draws out implications for policy, practice and research. These include acknowledging that the provision of an attentive, individualised service requires adequate staffing, staff training and management support; government and local authorities increasing their level of awareness of the differences in care provision, which are reflective of different approaches to personalisation, within care home markets; and fostering commitment to personalised care (Edited publisher abstract)

This book demonstrates how to introduce Individual Service Funds (ISFs), what works and what doesn't, and how to deal with difficulties and setbacks. Individual Service Funds are one way that people living with dementia can have a personal budget. The authors explain how they went about introducing the principles of ISFs to people living with dementia in a large care home in Stockport, without using any additional funding. They describe the person-centred practices used and the involvement of the council, commissioners, staff and families. Through detailed stories and examples, they demonstrate the significant impact to quality of life for people with dementia the approach can deliver. There is a strong emphasis on managerial and organisational issues, including getting staff 'on board', providing adequate support, budgeting, building effective partnerships and implementing change.

... An intervention introduced to assist or protect a person should be designed for the specific needs of the individual and subject to review. However, there is a danger that in care homes safeguarding practices may stifle and personalised approaches to care. This article argues that personalisation should be implemented in the context of safeguarding, and encourages staff to work together to achieve an integrated
