The Professional Gift Model is when service users are appreciative of the support they are given, rather than feeling empowered or righteous. It focuses on the assessment of those who are eligible and how it is given to those who are in need. The gift model is easy to access for those who are eligible, without any extra work for themselves. This model can be taken advantage of and can be overused at times. It can have a negative impact in regards to the eligibility process and how the funding works. It may leave those with a health condition feeling worthless if they are not eligible.

Personalisation means the individual is involved in all decisions regarding their care and supported in being able to remain as independent as possible. They should be given support in ways in which this can be manageable and achievable. They should feel in control of their care and have a lot more choice. Their choices should be based on their needs and preferences. When individuals are given a personal budget, they can spend it on the services they wish to. Personalisation means working well with other health care services and having a good partnership. Partnership working involves good communication, strong leadership, trust between all those involved, shared policies and guidelines, and agreeing that the client is at the centre of all decisions. 1.4 Explain why the concept of ‘outcomes’ is central to personalisation: Being aware of the specific outcomes for an individual, is key to providing the correct care services the individual wishes to achieve.

Outcomes can often be something that the person wishes to improve or resolve, so with the correct care in place, this can be achieved. Care can be adapted or constructed so that these outcomes are at the forefront of their care and are realistically able to be achieved. Resources can be used or offered to enable these outcomes to be achieved, sometimes these will be achieved over a period, not instantly. Using the persons strengths will contribute to the outcomes and will help them to feel in control. All outcomes should be driven by the person’s wishes and will be individual to them, this way they are achieving a personalised care plan. All outcomes will be meaningful to the individual and should be reviewed over time. 1.5 Identify legislative and policy drivers for personalised services Policy drivers can be statements or an objective
