Nottingham and Nottinghamshire ICB
More residents are being encouraged to have their say on health and care issues by joining the NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Citizens’ Panel.
Since the panel was extended in February, figures show that uptake has been higher in Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe. However, figures for Bassetlaw are low, so there is a particular focus on encouraging more people to join up and share their experiences.
The Citizens’ Panel is online and consists of surveys, polls and questionnaires throughout the year. The information collected helps the NHS to plan for future services.
Amanda Sullivan, Chief Executive of Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board, said: “We want to work closely with people in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire to find out more about their views on existing health and care services and how they want them to develop in the future.
“It’s really easy to join the Panel and you only need to spend a few minutes every month giving your feedback. This is just one way that we are engaging with local people, alongside events and coproduction work to jointly shape future services.”
Once people sign up to the Panel, members will receive requests for feedback as well as a regular newsletter with information about health and care services.
