Patient and carer involvement ensures working in equal partnership with people who have lived experience of a condition.
Hearing the patient and carer voice is integral to working in a patient-centred way when improving our stroke and neurorehabilitation services.
We have launched a toolkit to support professionals involved in the improvement of our local services. It aims to:
- Provide a greater understanding of patient and carer involvement in developing, delivering and improving stroke and neurorehabilitation services
- Explain why it is important to hear a diverse range of voices and lived experiences
- Offer guidance and suggestions on how to make involvement a reality
- Signpost to useful resources
- Answer common questions and share practical tips
You can watch a webinar about the toolkit and download the document and its key resources below. You can find out more about how we have created a step change in our patient and carer involvement in this report and poster.
The Stroke Association have also launched a toolkit although more aimed at involvement in research.
