Exploring Patient Experience: Storytelling (Patient / Service User Experience)

By its very nature, health-care involves taking care of others during times of distress and difficulty. This makes understanding the experiences of those accessing health care crucial in understanding impact of services offered, and in planning for effective service delivery. There is no single definition of patient experience, but seeking to explore this is key in understanding the human experience of health-care services.

Join us for this series of workshops, which aim to stimulate thinking and deepen understanding of patient experiences. These can be accessed as a series, or as individual sessions. Each will be hosted by Karl Roberts (Head of Design, Development and Patient Faculty, NHS England) and a member of the Patient Faculty.
