Each episode of The Personalised Care Podcast will discuss how a personalised care approach – which requires health and care professionals to reframe their focus from ‘what’s the matter’ with them to ‘what matters’ to someone – can be applied in different scenarios, leading to better patient outcomes, improved adherence to advice and increased clinician and patient satisfaction. It will also share approaches to embed such practices across health and social care.

Launching the series, the first episode focuses on women’s health, with guests from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (RCOG).

The PCI’s clinical director, Dr Pauline Foreman, hosts the first podcast in the series. Dr Foreman said: “This is the first podcast series of its kind and I’m pleased that we’ve got such an extensive and informative programme of bitesized episodes ahead. Listeners will hear first-person accounts and discussions from their peers, leaders in personalised care and patients.

“The series is designed to provide an accessible way for multidisciplinary healthcare professionals to hear insightful accounts of how personalised care makes a difference in their clinical settings. We recognise that the true success of personalised care is embedding its practice with a prepared public, so we also talk about how a collaborative approach is needed to deliver tangible results for patients.”
