Authors' recommendations: Care planning is part of a broader approach to patient-centred care, encouraging patients to participate in consultations and share in decision making • Personalised care planning can improve some measures of physical health in people with long-term conditions such as diabetes and asthma • Lack of time in consultations is perceived as a barrier to care planning by professionals and patients • Strategies for developing consultation skills aimed at both professionals and patients, alongside condition-specific training, could improve patients' health outcomes and behaviours • Encouraging professionals to initiate care planning and self-management discussions, and reassuring patients that social and emotional issues are legitimate discussion topics could be helpful
