      Many practitioners in health, social care and wider public services in Scotland say they feel overwhelmed by the range of initiatives being implemented around person-centred working, personalisation and personal outcomes approaches.

      This review aims to reduce confusion and progress person-centred ways of working to improve outcomes for people, tackle inequalities and support the sustainability of services.
