I'd like to see that paper. I think that would be interesting. Thank you very much. Gareth Davies.

One of the worst rates because of their diet, or—?

Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
Thank you. You mentioned work in Finland with regard to the turnaround in heart disease. It'd be interesting to have a bit more information about that, either in written form, or if you've got something; if you've got a short summary that would be useful. Is…

Thank you. We'll have to move on to the next section. Thank you, both. Mabon ap Gwynfor.

Thank you, Jack. This is a really helpful session. In terms of time, we've got three subject areas that we want to cover, so that gives us about 10 minutes for each subject area. So, Joyce is doing one and then Mabon and then Gareth, so we've got 10 minutes…

Have you finished your line of questioning, Jack?

Do you mind if I bring Mabon in? You wanted to come in, then I'll come back.

Sarah, would you mind if I just bring Jack in and I'll come back to you?
, Health and Social Care Committee

Don't say that.

Interesting. Thank you. So, Sarah Murphy.

You mentioned the examples in Germany and Spain. Is that a whole-country approach or are they specific projects just running in parts of the country, or are they part of their national health service?
, Health and Social Care Committee

Any good examples internationally—in Europe or wider?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
I suppose, if you're aware of other work that's been done, give us an example somewhere across Wales or wider where there's an example of best practice.

And could you perhaps expand on what research you've done in terms of person-centred care from Public Health Wales, and is there other work that you think that you could do or you would like to do, perhaps if you had more resource?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
Thank you. So, it's kind of a big question, so perhaps just in bullet form, perhaps, or in short, perhaps answer this question. But in terms of delivering person-centred care, what's the big challenge in being able to do that, and how do you overcome the…

So, when you talked about your mother's experience, that was a definition of person-centred care, but you go along to say there are wider aspects of that as well. And how would your definition, Zoe, of person-centred care change?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
That's interesting. That's why I asked the question, because I've got my definition, and I wanted to check.
, Health and Social Care Committee
Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
Thank you. I suppose, then, perhaps digging into my question a bit more, because from what you’ve outlined, in terms of your mother’s experience, what you’re saying is that this is the position that we should get to: person-centred care. But just give me the…
, Health and Social Care Committee
Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with Public Health Wales
Can I ask a question on that? That's good from the patient's point of view, but something in me tells me that might be more complicated to put into practice, because then you've got to make sure different health professionals are all in the same location at…

Thank you ever so much, both, for being with us this morning. Over to you.

We move to item 5. Welcome back to the Health and Social Care Committee. This is the first evidence session to inform our work on the chronic conditions inquiry. We've got colleagues from Public Health Wales here this morning. They're going to provide a…
