- Co-production: Individuals are fully involved in care decisions, choosing and controlling their personal care to express important values.
- Inclusive communities: participation in community activities, and access to resources (sports clubs, libraries etc.) is essential for valued community membership.
- Core concepts of person-centred care include valuing individuals as unique people, respecting their values, balancing individual needs with essential care considerations, and recognizing the positive aspects of risk-taking.
