We are proud to lead the development of Health Coaching in the health and social care sector and are passionate about its use to deliver Personalised Care. With the ever increasing pressure on our health and care systems, new ways of working and different kinds of conversations, underpinned by a change in mindset, are vital. The effective use of Health Coaching is transforming the sector and revolutionising the way in which health and social care services are delivered.
We’re committed to changing the dynamic between the people using services and the service providers, to help deliver personalised and coordinated care designed to fit around a person’s health and social care needs.
We have programmes to support all health and care practitioners. Whether you are in a dedicated Coaching role focussing on supporting self-management and behaviour change or a practitioner wanting to embed the versatility of a coaching approach to work in a more collaborative, personalised and empowering way with your clients, we have a programme to meet your needs.
