How we create patient information people can trust

Meet the experts behind clear, consistent and consent-ready patient information.

Join Radar Healthcare’s Content Director, Julie Smith, and clinician and EIDO Library contributor, from Mid & South Essex NHS Foundation Trust, Julie Godfrey. for a behind-the-scenes conversation about how trusted patient information is created.

This 30-minute webinar is ideal for healthcare, clinical and governance teams.

Patient information plays an important role in helping people understand their treatment options, ask informed questions and make decisions about their care. 

In this practical and open conversation, the session will explore how clinical expertise, peer review and editorial standards come together to create information that patients can understand and clinicians can rely on. 

Using the ‘Inserting a PICC Line’ information document as a practical example, they will discuss how patient information supports shared decision-making and informed consent, from the first draft through to clinical use.
