The question communicates so much and has the potential to give so much to the conversation, whether clinical or not. In clinical conversations, asking what matters, what the person wants to talk about or focus on, helps patients set the agenda for the consultation, voice their preferences, and sets the scene for shared decision making.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Being asked \u201cwhat matters to you\u201d shows that someone is interested in you, curious, and sees worth in developing a meaningful connection\u2014all valuable things for anyone accessing health services. The value for clinicians is that consultations become much more productive and satisfying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s more than just asking the question though. We need to think about how we listen to the response and what we do next\u2026.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s often said that many people listen to respond rather than to understand. Fall into this trap when asking what matters to someone, and we end up being pseudo-person centred, which is both un-constructive and disingenuous. We need to listen with unconditional, non-judgmental curiosity, even when we see patients choose options we wouldn\u2019t choose ourselves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once we\u2019ve asked what matters to someone, that should inform the rest of our conversation. It might mean we take an active signposting approach to other services\u2014perhaps via social prescribing\u2014that could help the person connect with what\u2019s important to them. A coaching approach using problem solving or goal setting could help them take steps themselves to change their day to day lives. Or it can be used as a proactive approach towards supporting people to keep well via personalized care and support planning and perhaps a personal budget for someone with more complex and enduring needs. In a clinical conversation, it will help steer shared decision making conversations and put clinical management in context of the rest of the person\u2019s life. This range of skills is covered in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skillsplatform.org\/courses\/5192-person-centred-approaches\">new e-learning programme <\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">from Health Education England.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Today is What Matters To You day, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.whatmatterstoyou.scot\/\">an initiative already established in Scotland<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, <a href=\"https:\/\/ihub.scot\/media\/1176\/20160707-wmtyday-2016-report-v10.pdf\">having originated in Norway. This year\u00a0<\/a>it <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">is being championed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.england.nhs.uk\/what-matters-to-you\/join-in\/\">NHS England<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. The challenge for us all is to take a day of enthusiasm and convert it into daily habits for all of us working in healthcare. From a behaviour change perspective, we know that&#8217;s hard.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We hear people fearful that these four words represent a can of worms being opened that they don\u2019t have the time to deal with. But there is an argument that we don\u2019t have the time to not ask the question. Following a clinical treatment pathway that doesn&#8217;t align with what matters to the person risks over-medicalization or overtreatment and the risk of harm. It also ignores other priorities in the person\u2019s life that have a major impact on their ability or capacity to engage or impact on their health generally. It begs the question, if what clinicians have to say doesn\u2019t matter to the patient, what is the purpose of medicine?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The reality is that what matters to patients is highly personal and often surprises clinicians; for instance the man for whom kneeling at prayer is a major priority in his life might reject the option of a knee replacement\u2014which can sometimes reduce knee flexion\u2014despite being a &#8220;good&#8221; candidate for surgery. A system which failed to recognize his preference and proceeded to operate would not only fail him\u2014it would have wasted public money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Our role in a clinical system is as catalysts and enablers so people are supported to develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to manage their health and wellbeing, and the impact this has on their day to day lives. We can only do this by focusing on what matters to them\u2014their priorities, their preferences, so we need to ask the question to find out &#8220;what matters to you?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/files\/2018\/06\/alf_collins.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-42283\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/files\/2018\/06\/alf_collins.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"153\" height=\"149\" \/><\/a>Alf Collins<\/strong> is the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">clinical director for the personalised care group in NHS England with a background as a doctor, commissioner, researcher and writer on all things person-centred.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-41070\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/files\/2018\/01\/anya-deiongh.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"160\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/files\/2018\/01\/anya-deiongh.jpg 160w, https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/files\/2018\/01\/anya-deiongh-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 160px) 100vw, 160px\" \/><strong>Anya de Iongh<\/strong> is patient editor for the BMJ and works nationally and locally around person-centred workforce development and self-management support services.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Competing interests<\/strong>: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmj.com\/about-bmj\/advisory-panels\/patient-panel-members\/anya-de-iongh\">Full details here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In clinical conversations, asking what matters helps set the agenda for the consultation, and makes it more productive and satisfying [&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary understrap-read-more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.bmj.com\/bmj\/2018\/06\/06\/anya-de-iongh-and-alf-collins-what-matters-to-you-is-at-the-heart-of-person-centred-care\/\">More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":42289,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5749],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-42282","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-patient-perspectives"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Anya de Iongh and Alf Collins: &quot;What matters to you?&quot;
