Would you be interested in helping NHS England develop some courses for Patient and Public volunteers
If so please read on…… NHS England are working with two companies called WSA and Just Ideas to develop three e-learning courses which are aimed at supporting Patient and Public Voice (PPV) partners who volunteer with them and NHS England staff. The three courses are: 1. Using social media to engage effectively with patients and the public 2. Developing excellent relationships with Patient and Public Voice volunteers (title tbc) 3. High impact communication skills for meetings (online and virtual) They think it is really important that people are able to contribute to the design and content of the courses. This will help to ensure that as they are developed, they have the input of those likely to be using them in future, and to check they are interesting, useful and using appropriate language. NHS E would be really grateful if you could spare an hour of your time to do this by joining a ‘webinar’ (a group phone conversation where you are also looking at a presentation on a computer screen and discussing it). They are offering two webinars, and you are welcome to join either one – the times are:
The details of how to join will be sent out to anyone interested, nearer the time. But rest assured it’s easy to participate as long as you have a phone and computer with internet access - you don’t have to have any experience of doing one before, we’ll talk you through it and it is really quite fun! If you are interested, please email Sam, project support officer: samantha@just-ideas.co.uk, she will acknowledge your email and near the date she will send you the details of how to join the webinar. If you have any queries before registering, you can call Charlotte (who will be facilitating the webinar discussions) on 07748 378913. If there is no reply please leave a message and she’ll call back. No-one will be turned away, there is room for all! If you are interested in being involved but can’t make the webinar dates, don’t worry – there are other ways of contributing either by e mail or by being part of a pilot of the course at a later stage. If you are interested contact Angela Medd, Project Manager, NHS England, 07876 851750 angela.medd@nhs.net and she can offer you some options about how to do this. NHS E will (with your permission of course) acknowledge your help with a Thankyou in the information about the courses.
