Electronic Person-Centered Description
Easily Create Continuity of Support
The Person-Centered Description (PCD) is the main product of the Person-Centered Thinking Training and is used to capture knowledge about the person, record it, and build on it, creating a road map to inform supports and planning.
We’ve digitized the PCD, creating the industry's only electronic Person-Centered Description (ePCD).
The ePCD offers a concise, well-organized record of essential human information about the person in support. It is a vital tool for continuity of appropriate support because it can be easily shared among support staff, ensuring no one loses sight of the person's unique characteristics.
Benefits of the ePCD
- All staff can access vital person-centered information about the person in real-time
- Learning about the person is easily captured and expanded upon
- Information in the ePCD helps ensure accommodations are person-centered
- Information is interoperable with other data systems
"I'm excited about these next phases of person-centered thinking training. The tools IntellectAbility is giving staff are transforming supports for people with IDD in South Carolina. We are seeing professional growth among staff and quality-of-life improvements for the people supported. There is no question that this approach is beneficial to all."
