NHS England (London) has launched its annual report on patient and public participation and engagement for 2014/15.

The report outlines how patients and the public have been involved in our commissioning processes and decisions across our organisation, from steering London’s Pharmaceutical Services Regulation Committee to improving cancer services in the capital and more.

Regional Chief Nurse, Caroline Alexander said, “Our ambition is that every Londoner has a chance to share their experiences about receiving health services in the capital and also have every opportunity to shape how care is delivered.

“This report showcases how we are working hard to make this happen by promoting participation and engagement with patients, carers and the public in our area. It highlights examples of good practice and identifies weaknesses and how we propose to improve.”

“We are committed to ensuring that public and patient voices are at the heart of shaping our healthcare services. There are always opportunities arising for interested individuals to become more involved.”
