5 Shared Decision Making Guidelines What is shared decision making? Shared decision making (SDM) is a process where a patient and their clinician are jointly engaged in the decision making process to choose a treatment, investigation or screening option which is consistent with the patient s individual needs, values and preferences. Patients are involved as active partners with professionals. Why is shared decision making important? Internationally, SDM is seen as a hallmark of good clinical practice. A review of patient participation in decision making concluded that patients wanted to be informed of treatment, treatment alternatives outcomes and risks. SDM can provide the opportunity for resolving any mismatch between clinician and patient expectations and is a way of enhancing patient engagement. No decision about me, without me. This can only be realised by involving patients fully in their own care, with decisions made in partnership with clinicians, rather than by clinicians alone. The process of shared decision making. As many patients are unfamiliar with being invited to share in decision making, it may help to briefly explain the process. Outlining that they have some choices you would like to go through with them before deciding together about the next step may reassure patients who might otherwise feel overwhelmed or uncertain. Mental Capacity Act Just because a patient has a mental impairment does not mean that those patients and their carers should not be involved in decisions about their care. Options may need to be communicated in different or more appropriate ways and patients need to be supported in understanding the options and their implications, as well as being assisted in making and communicating their choices. The principles of the Mental Capacity Act must be adhered to in any decision making where a patient lacks capacity or their capacity is predicted to deteriorate over time. The Mental Capacity Act requires that all practical and appropriate steps are taken to enable a person to make the decision themselves. If the person is deemed to lack capacity for the specific decision, then the practitioner must document this and a decision should be taken in the person s best interest. Children and Young People The principles of shared decision making should apply equally to all people regardless of age, and acknowledge that young people may require additional support to be fully involved in decisions about their care.
