We developed our previous patient and strategy together with our service users and carers.
It launched in April 2016, and it sets out aspirations for patient and carer involvement and experience over the next three years.

Our strategy aims
Person-centred Care
To develop a culture which encourages and supports joint working between the people who use our services, their carers/families and our staff.
We are aiming for the person involved to be part of every conversation about them so that no decision is made without them, as far as practically possible.
Acting on feedback
We want to be more curious and ask for feedback, take time to listen, and then act on and demonstrate changes we make as a result of your feedback.
The good practice we will encourage for our staff includes:
- Routinely asking for feedback
- Sharing and discussing feedback with all team members
- Acting on both positive and negative feedback
- Routinely sharing with patients the changes that have been made as a result of feedback
Involvement in services
We want to improve the opportunities for involvement, and make sure that there are no barriers for harder to reach groups, vulnerable patients, the public and people with a disability.
We want to work together and use a joint endeavour approach (sometimes called co-design), identifying issues and actions to improve services/care pathways, to redesign services and sometimes, to help deliver the services themselves.
Good involvement can transform a person’s life, improve services and develop strong communities.
