Our draft ‘Involvement Charter’
Published on: 23rd July 2021
Over the last 18 months, we have been working with a group of over 100 local residents through our EPIC (Engage Participate Involve Collaborate) programme, to develop proposals for how we work with local people and involve them in the work of the NHS in future.
One suggestion from the group was that we develop an ‘involvement charter’ setting out standards that we expect to meet and be held accountable to. The group helped us develop the charter, which we are now publishing in draft for further comment. Please let us have any queries comments on the charter by Monday, 6 September 2021 by emailing nhsnwlccg.communications.nwl@nhs.net.
