For example if an individual has been under section for many years, has multi-agency reviews whereby they have to reach a particular level of understanding and their mood/behaviour should remain stable before release they can ultimately feel as though the choice has been taken away from them, even though it is in their best interest that these decisions are made by other health professions. However once in the community the citizens should have a full explanation that the goals for their future are based on the decisions and choices they make whilst under conditions of their section, if taking medication is one condition of their community treatment order and the citizen is compliant, then, for example, they should be given further choice to decide what time they may take it and with what drink.

However the author considers pathways are an important component of person centred care if presented in the form of an a la carte rather than a set menu. Pathways can be used as a resource to talk through choices with patient. Pathways support practitioners and patients to navigate through the range of services that are available to meet individual needs and preferences.
