There are four main approaches to person centred practice, “Pathway” planning, “Maps” planning, “Person centred portfolios” (otherwise known as “Essential Lifestyle Planning”) and “Personal Future Planning.” Discussion will prove that “ each shares characteristics that explicitly emphasise the personal empowerment of service users, in which the principal direction for support generates from those for whom planning is being carried out.”(Langley, 2001) However the use different formats means that each approach focuses on different aspects and my comparison will note strengths and weaknesses, and how they are designed for implementation in different scenarios of person centred practice and planning.
This involves considering the ability of service providers to continually listen to, learn about, and facilitate opportunities with, the people they are supporting. It is important to note that the individual with care and support needs, their participation is considered beyond the individual planning meeting. (which may be an important part of the decision making process). Rather, active participation throughout the entire individual planning process is discussed. There are four common themes in person-centred planning assessments. These are:

Person-centred planning is when you have to reflect on their capabilities and what support they may require now and in the future so that they can play an active part in their community. So services should be delivered in a way the person chooses not them being slotted into gaps to suit others.
Person centred planning is a set of approaches designed to assist someone plan their life with support. It is most often used as a model to enable people with disabilities or otherwise requiring support to increase their personal self determination and improve their own independence. It discovers and acts on what is important to the person.
Finding out the history, preferences, wishes and needs of an individual will contribute to their care plan, you would do this by asking and talking to the person concerned, or if they were unable to tell you this information, you could speak with their family. Ask the individual about their life, and what they used to work as etc, if they are able to tell you all of this, then you will learn a great deal about them and this will help you to offer support to them in the most appropriate ways. Residents can often find it hard to
Person-centred planning is used to support an individual based on their needs placing that individuals at the centre of a service/s. This is done to ensure that any individual using a service is always fully involved in decisions that may affect any or all aspects of their lives.
Instead offering people a choice of what is currently available and finding what best fits their needs, person-centred working looks at someone’s needs and built the support package around them. One of the important aspects of person-centred planning is to look at what people are able to do for themselves and to ensure that services are not taking over aspects of a person’s life that they could perfectly well manage without support.
Person Centred Planning allows more control for the customer allowing their individual choices and needs to be catered for and in turn services such as what I as a manager
Empowerment and choice are fundamental principles; it is essential that the service user is at the centre (person centred approach) and that they have real choices over how they live their lives, with opportunities to do things in the way that they choose. There is a means of taking account of all views, individuals/family members, staffetcthat alongside of rights goes responsibility.It is based on the belief that shared decision making is the most effective, transparent and safe way to reach a decision that could be made at the time based on information available at that time.

Carl R. Rogers is known as the founding father of person-centered therapy. He was born in Oak Park, Illinois, in 1902 to a devoted Christian and a civil engineer (Rogers, Kirschenbaum, & Land, 2001). In 1922 Rogers began to doubt his religious teaching from early on in life, he sought a more liberal education at the Union Theological Seminary (Rogers, Kirschenbaum, & Land, 2001). After two years he left to attend Columbia University to study clinical and education psychology. Rogers went on to write four major books: The Clinical Treatment of the Problem Child (1939), Counseling and Psychotherapy: New Concepts in Practice (1942), Client-Centered Therapy (1951), and Psychotherapy and Personality (Rogers & Dymond, 1954) (Walsh, 2010; Patterson, 2007).
