    The Point of Care Foundation has partnered with others whose mission is to Humanise Healthcare. Our next cohort for the Patient Leadership Programme is scheduled for May 2022, when we once again partner with David Gilbert, mental health service user, director of InHealth Associates and the first Patient Director in the NHS, to host his ground-breaking Patient Leadership programme.
    Patient Leadership signals a breakthrough in healthcare that moves beyond traditional engagement and uncovers the pioneering and transformative work of patient leaders – those affected by life-changing illness, injury or disability who want to lead change in the healthcare system. Or ‘those who have been through stuff, who know stuff, who want to change stuff’.
    This course lays the foundation for understanding patient leadership. It is designed for both patients and non-patients to explore together different facets of this emerging social movement.
    Programme lead – David Gilbert, Director, InHealth Associates
    Host – Ioanna Xenephontes, Patient Experience & Involvement Programmes, The Point of Care Foundation

    The Course will be delivered through four sessions; each will be two and a half hours long and take place via Zoom. Each session will consist of about 50/50 presentation and discussion.

    The results from the Five X More nationwide survey on Black women’s maternity experiences will be officially launching on Tuesday 24th May
    "No decisions about us, without us"
    For many years Black women and birthing people in the UK have experienced poorer health outcomes and lower quality of care. This is particularly true within maternity. In the recent MBRRACE reports, clear racial variations in maternal deaths were observed, showing that Black women are four times as likely to die as white women during pregnancy, delivery or postpartum, yet the reasons for the differences in maternal outcomes remain unclear.
    We believe a crucial step to solving this is to understand how maternity care is delivered from the perspective of women from the Black community.
    Join us as we delve further into the statistics of this landmark study completed by over 1300 respondents and hear updates from our special guest keynote speakers TBA.
