Relationships

Isaac Samuels – National Coproduction Advisory Group

Our session today…. Strengths Based Partnerships

▪How do we feel?

▪Using Think Local Act Personal’s (TLAP) Making

it Real approach

▪How can we re-humanise the system?

▪ The importance of co-production

“I can live the life I want and do the things that are important to

me as independently as possible”

What is Making it Real?

▪ A vision, inspiration and guide.

▪ Understanding that good human relationships are fundamental to good personalised care and support.

▪ Understanding the importance of the citizen’s

perspective

▪ It is about the relationships we have as people – not the relationships with services.

▪ For all adults with care, treatment and support needs - applies across social care, health and housing

▪ It’s what good looks like

Built around I and We statements

I statements

What good personalised care and support looks and feels like if it is working well

We statements

How organisations and their people need to behave to make sure actual experience lives up to the I Statements

For example...I StatementsI have care and support that is coordinated and everyone works well together and with me.

I have care and support that enables me to live as I want to, seeing me as a unique person with skills, strengths and personal goals

I can choose who supports me, and how, when and where my care and support is provided.

I am treated with respect and dignity

We StatementsWe work in partnership with others to make sure that all our services work seamlessly together from the perspective of the person accessing services.

We work with others to agree a single, integrated personal plan and provide a named coordinator for people accessing more than one service.

We work with people as equal partners and combine our respective knowledge and experience to support joint-decision making.
