Shared decision making: NICE web resources

A new webpage from NICE details the benefits of shared decision making, and links to current support documents to assist with helping patients make decisions about their care, e.g. patient decision aids (PDAs) and brief decision aids.

Patient decision aids available include:

– Atrial fibrillation: medicines to help reduce your risk of a stroke – what are the options?
– Taking a statin to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke
– Type 2 diabetes in adults: controlling your blood glucose by taking a second medicine – what are your options?
