National i-THRIVE Community of Practice Event:
Supporting Shared Decision Making and Personalised Care through Integrated Front Doors
Thursday 3rd November 2022
The National i-THRIVE Programme will be leading a session on how integrated front doors can be used to support personalised care and shared decision making. We’ll be hearing from two of our community of practice sites (Greater Manchester and Islington in London) on their experiences of developing an integrated front door and challenges they have faced. This will be followed by a panel discussion, where you will have the opportunity to ask questions.
Due to planned rail strikes and industrial action, the event has been moved online and will take place remotely via Zoom. We will still be encouraging active engagement and there will be opportunities for networking throughout.
Please contact the team to purchase your ticket.
