Abstract: |
Personal and Public Involvement (PPI) is about involving those who use Health and Social Care (HSC) services, or care for those who use services, with those who plan and deliver services. PPI operates at a number of levels throughout the Public Health Agency (PHA) and Health and Social Care Board (HSCB). These range from one to one interactions with service users and carers, through to engagements aimed at assessing need, to service design and redesign, to service evaluation, to making investment decisions, to influencing commissioning priorities and policy development. This Strategy shows the direction that both the PHA and the HSCB are committed to in their development of PPI. It provides guidance to those who commission, manage, deliver, and evaluate HSC services on how to do so in a way which embraces PPI approaches for the benefit of service users and carers. Six priority areas have been identified for inclusion in the Strategy. These are: cultural integration of PPI; awareness and understanding of PPI; training and skills development; impact measurement; stakeholder support; and communication and co-ordination. These strategy recommendations will be operationalised with the preparation of an Action Plan. |
