Patient Panel

The patient panel is a group of local people who volunteer their time and skills and work in partnership with the Trust.

With a maximum of 20 members, who have recent experience of being a patient or carer, the panel meet monthly to provide a patient’s perspective on Trust services and developments.

Individual members also sit on a large number of committees such as Corporate Governance, Equality and Diversity, Research and Development and Patient Records.

The aim of the group is to build a strong partnership between the Trust, patients and the public and ensure that everyone’s ’voice’ is heard. The panel also advise on Trust policies, as they develop and change.
