Theme: Supporting people with Long Term Conditions (LTCs) not only to manage their health, but to live their best lives is a huge global health challenge.     Context: Personalised Care and Support Planning (PCSP) is the principle clinical method for delivering person-centred care for LTCs the UK.  It is part of the Realistic Medicine programme in Scotland (2016)1 and Personalised Care in England (2019)2.  Year of Care Partnerships (YoCP) have developed and delivered PCSP training and implementation in health communities in England and Scotland since 20113.  Around 1:6 general practices in Scotland use this approach for people living with single and multiple LTCs.  The National University Health Systems Cluster in Singapore have adapted and adopted PCSP for specialist clinics (2018) and polyclinics (2019) for people with diabetes.   Impact: The YoCP approach to PCSP is robust and effective in diverse cultures within and across all three nations.  It delivers person-centred care, promotes system changes that enable more equal partnerships between people with LTCs and healthcare professionals, provides greater enablement and self-efficacy, and improves health outcomes. Workshop: Participants will: Explore the values-base, clinical, economic and whole system benefits of PCSP, and case studies of impact. Engage in exercises derived from personal experience to understand the rationale for PCSP, explore the underpinning philosophical approaches and be able to relate these to clinical practice. Be introduced to the YoCP consultation model for PCSP. Reflect upon the core system components and skills of successful PCSP. Have the opportunity to test how these approaches can be applied in their own health setting.
