The Process

Person-Centred Care is at the heart of what we do.

The Process

There are many different emotions an individual may feel should they receive a diagnosis of a life changing illness, condition or disease.  Being told they may one day depend on support from others, whether it be from family, care staff, nurses or doctors is probably one of the hardest things an individual can hear.  The emotional challenges for everyone involved will have a massive impact.  Should an individual require short or long-term future care then it is vital that their voice will always be heard.  Preparing 4 CARE ensures that an individual’s wishes are incorporated into any proposed care and support plan, and will make the transition into the care system that little bit easier.

Preparing 4 CARE is simple to use, not only will you be able to build your Personal Care Profile but will also find useful information about Health Care Providers, associated services and industry news.

We have kept it simple.

Accessibility was a major consideration during the design stage of the Preparing 4 CARE solution. Sentences are written in simple English using colours that make text easier to read by individuals with eye conditions such as Cataracts and Glaucoma. The Personal Care Profile can be completed over several days with the assistance of a trusted person if required.

“At some point in life we are all likely to need to use the health and social care system. Whether this is a hospital, home care, short-term or long-term care. Preparing 4 CARE is essential to help a Health Care Provider understand your wishes and allow them to build your care around you and not what’s convenient for themselves. This solution allows them to communicate with you even if you lack the capacity to communicate for yourself.”
