These scenarios put the person at the centre of the story. They use fictional service users to show the difference between a suboptimal – but realistic – pathway of care, compared to an optimal one. Where possible, the costs of care are highlighted, not only financial to the local health and care system, but also the impact on the individual and their family. Scenarios support local health and care systems to think strategically about designing optimal care for people (and their carers) with long term or high impact conditions.
