Sharing Good Practice

The Schools and RIs in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences have established a wealth of experience in working alongside users and carers with a diverse range of expertise. Many of the people involved across the Faculty have published about their experiences, or have developed resources to capitalise on these unique opportunities as good practice initiatives. Examples of these good practice initiatives are provided below for your information:

Involving patients and carers within activities around health across the Faculty can help to ensure that our work remains ‘fit for purpose’. They can add a unique personal perspective; participate in dialogues to promote two way communication between ‘academics’ and ‘users’; participate in staff training and development, promoting a greater understanding of ‘users’ and their needs; and inform the direction and development of learning, teaching and research. When users and carers visit the University we must remember that they may be unfamiliar with academic life, and may be unsure what to expect. These principles have been written as minimum good practice standards to ensure a consistent approach to supporting any involvement across the Faculty.
