New Fife wide public engagement forum
The Fife Wide Public Engagement Forum will be a space to build working relationships between the public, NHS Fife, Fife Health and Social Care Partnership and the Integration Joint Board where we will work together to help identify and prioritise the needs of Fife’s residents in health and social care planning and decision making.
The vision - A space for members of the public to help shape Health and Social Care services in Fife for the future.
The mission - To develop a forum that is accessible to members of the public, care providers and health and social care services to work together and improve services for those who use them.
Our aims –
- Creation of a platform where every voice matters and where health and social care services are designed based on the needs of the people they serve.
- A forum which offers open communication channels and builds trust between members of the public and the Integration Joint Board.
- A forum which encourages and supports members of the public to develop knowledge and awareness around decision-making processes and have an active role in positive change.
