Stakeholder involvement involves which individuals?

The involvement of stakeholders in a support plan is essential for creating a comprehensive and effective approach to care. Stakeholder involvement includes not only the individual receiving support, but also their family members and other significant people in their lives. This approach recognizes the importance of a supportive network, as these individuals can offer critical insights into the person’s needs, preferences, and strengths.

By including family and important people in the decision-making and planning process, the support provided becomes more personalized and aligned with the individual's values and goals. This collaborative effort ensures that everyone who plays a role in the individual’s support system is aware of their needs and contributes to their overall well-being. Involving a broader circle of support increases the likelihood of positive outcomes and empowers the individual receiving care through shared decision-making.
