Describe how person-centered practice is used to support individuals.
As a health and social care worker, we want to provide the best possible care we can to our
patients and through the Person-Centered practice, we can. Person centered practice aims
to help our service user by including them with all the planning, decision-making and
services they may need through a Care plan. This care plan is a part of this approach which

to them through understanding them and by caring for them
