Our Connecting Communities Network was developed to bring together health and care professionals, including volunteers from across the system to actively promote and embed personalised care approaches in everything we do. The Network provides a safe space for sharing with and learning from others, and tackling common wicked issues and barriers faced across the system.
Across West Yorkshire we support each other and work collaboratively to deliver personalised health and care which meets the diverse needs of the populations we serve. Our ambition is to create social movement for change by embedding and spreading personalised care through a network and provide the forum to share learning and negotiate solutions to any problems or conflicts in order to embed and spread personalised.
Within our Connecting Community Network meetings that took place in 2021, we explored themes including:
- Covid reset and recovery
- Amplifying the voice of diverse communities
- Peer support and leadership
- 2021 reflection: looking back and forward planning
