People with a disability or who are threatened by a disability are the focus of the work of the Institut Personenzentrierte Hilfen GmbH, IPH for short. The IPH is a so-called "affiliated institute" at Fulda University of Applied Sciences and is located in the University Centre Fulda Transfer.
Person-centredness aims to provide competent professional support as far as possible in people's immediate living environment and to establish the organisational and structural conditions for this. One way to implement person-centred support is the Integrated Participation Plan (ITP). The ITP is an instrument for determining which assistance services an impaired person needs. For this purpose, the life situation is comprehensively examined together with the person concerned and all persons from the living environment are also included.
In this way, the supportive measures are determined and derived from this - in order to ensure the greatest possible participation and thus inclusion in life in the community. In this way, the ITP comprehensively implements the requirements of the Federal Participation Act.
If you work in services for people with disabilities and are interested in the topic of integrated participation planning, you are welcome to contact the Institute.
