4Pi is a framework for the involvement of service users and carers – in our own care, in our communities, in service delivery and evaluation and in organisational governance and strategy.
It is a simple framework on which to base standards for good practice, and to monitor and evaluate involvement.
The framework builds on the work on many people: mental health service users and carers and others who have lived and breathed involvement and shared their experiences in various ways, both written and unwritten.
