Ottawa Personal Decision Guides

The Ottawa Personal Decision Guide (OPDG) and Ottawa Personal Decision Guide for Two (OPDGx2) are designed for any health-related or social decisions.

They can help people identify their decision making needs, plan the next steps, track their progress, and share their views about the decision. See this video example of the OPDG being used to coach someone making a decision.

They can be used by healthcare professionals to facilitate shared decision making.
