The value of personalised care
What is personalised care?
Personalised care gives patients more control and choice when it comes to the way their care is planned and delivered, taking into account individual needs, preferences and circumstances. Learn more about personalised care here.
Why is personalised care important?
Research shows that when patients have the opportunity to be involved in decision-making around personalised healthcare, there can be better outcomes and experiences and reduced health inequalities. Find out more here.
How is the value demonstrated?
The value of personalised care is demonstrated through growing evidence showing improvements in health outcomes, better adherence to medical advice and increased satisfaction for both patients and clinicians. PCI training allows health and care professionals to equip themselves with the knowledge and skills they need in order to deliver personalised care.
