Unit Aims

The aim of this unit is to provide learners with the knowledge and understanding required to implement and promote person-centred approaches. A person-centred approach is where the person is placed at the centre of the service and treated as a person first. The unit explores how the focus is on the person and what they can do, not their condition or disability.
