NHS England is currently undertaking a review of specialist vascular services across Kent and Medway. The review has been set up to ensure that services meet national standards, using best practice to improve patient experience and outcomes.

Following a number of public listening events where the case for change was discussed, NHS England would now like to engage people who have used these services, their representatives and carers in more detail.

It is critical that any new model reflects patient perspectives and to this end, an event is being hosted by NHS England on 23 February 2016. During this session participants will work directly with lead clinicians and provide feedback on the proposed new model of care.  The event will be independently facilitated.

If you are interested in seeing the case for change or attending the event please contact the programme lead, Oena Windibank, oena.windibank1@nhs.net or Naomi Jones, naomi.jones@redzebra.org.uk, 01227 772248.

Due to the nature of the session this is an invite only event.
