Collaborating Centre for Values-based Practice in Health and Social Care

Description

The Collaborating Centre, located at St Catherine's College in Oxford, has been established to promote the advancement of values-based practice through shared learning. It serves as a hub for a diverse range of individuals and organisations dedicated to different aspects of values-based practice in the healthcare field, with a particular emphasis on mental health, social care, and the expansion of values-based approaches into other healthcare domains, such as surgery.

The primary objective of the Centre is to foster collaborations among individuals and organisations striving to enhance the utilisation of values in health and social care, facilitating the development of more effective methodologies.

The Centre primarily focuses on values-based approaches, fostering strong connections with other relevant resources for working with values, such as ethics, law, health economics, decision analysis, and various aspects of the medical humanities. Additionally, it actively promotes collaboration with evidence-based practice. The Centre operates on the principle that values-based and evidence-based approaches are equally important in the realm of clinical care.
