Gloucestershire Health and Care is committed to embedding and providing personalised care through all of its services as part of our high-quality care strategy.

The purpose of personalised care is to empower people to lead the lives they want to live. Personalised care starts with a conversation with people about what matters to them. It builds on what people can do, as well as addressing their health needs.
