The My Care Choices Register team believe that everyone deserves personalised, dignified, and well coordinated care, especially as health needs become more complex. Our mission is to support people in recording what matters most to them, ensuring their wishes are respected by those involved in their care.
Information on the digital My Care Choices Register is often gained from the paper version which is a structured document designed to help individuals think about their future care, express their preferences, and ensure these wishes are understood by family members, carers, and healthcare professionals.
Using this as a baseline, we ensure that the information shared via the My Care Choices Register is available to all healthcare professionals involved in an individuals care.
We bring together clinicians, digital care planning experts, regional coordinators, and partners across health and social care to deliver a consistent, person-centred approach to advance care planning.
Our approach includes:
Supporting individuals and families to record what matters most
Empowering clinicians to provide personalised and compassionate care
Improving communication between healthcare settings
Enhancing safety and quality by ensuring preferences are readily accessible
Our work is strengthened by a broad community of dedicated clinicians who champion the values behind the My Care Choices Register.
These professionals, including doctors, nurses, allied health specialists, and community care teams, play a vital role in supporting individuals to express what matters most to them as their health needs change.
They help guide meaningful conversations, ensure personal preferences are clearly documented, and advocate for these wishes to be honoured across all care settings.
Their collective expertise ensures that the MCCR remains a compassionate, practical, and trusted tool for person‑centred care, empowering people and their families to feel informed, respected, and supported throughout their care journey.
The MCCR programme is supported by a team of Regional Engagement & Support Leads who work directly with NHS partners, hospices, GP practices, and community providers.
