(Part One): Meaningfully involving service users and carers in quality improvement work

This session will be discussing an exciting new initiative to develop meaningful service user and carer engagement within quality improvement work at Central and Northwest London NHS Foundation Trust. All work is co-produced with service users, carers, and staff at the Trust.  

Delegates interested in improving co-production within their areas can learn from the work and create more meaningful working relationships between service users, carers, and clinicians.

(Part Two): Partnering with the woman who decline recommended maternity care

Refusal of recommended maternity care can be a confronting issue for women, midwives, and obstetricians with clinical, legal, and ethical implications. 

This presentation describes the development and implementation of co-designed, evidence-based resources to support informed decision-making, respectful care, and clinical, legal, and ethical safety when the woman declines recommended maternity care.

(Part Three): Co-designing person-centred comprehensive care planning across the care continuum

Models of healthcare have traditionally been episodic, and diagnosis centred. In an era of increased chronic illness and multi-morbidity, there is a clear need for health care to transition towards integrated, person centred and goal-oriented care. However, involving consumers in care planning decisions and aligning this with consumers’ values, needs and preferences across the care continuum and clinical specialties is operationally challenging. 

This session will demonstrate how health services can co-design meaningful and implementable solutions for interdisciplinary person-centred care planning and delivery across the care continuum, using an Australian public health service as a case study.
