In an exciting initiative led by the NHS Herts and West Essex Integrated Care Board’s recently established Patient Engagement Forum (PEF -created to ensure that the ICB hears the patient voice), we’re launching a closed Facebook group to facilitate discussion, support, fact finding and create a two-way flow of information to ensure the patient really is at the heart of everything the local NHS does.

 The PEF’s commitment to you is:

• To listen to what is important to you
• To follow up on anything that is critical; and
• To report back on the outcomes from this work.

As a closed group, it is only open to people who live or work in Hertfordshire and west Essex, you can be sure of a safe and secure environment in which everyone respects each other and seeks to share experiences.

The ‘welcome’ page asks a series of questions about what is important to you; share your thoughts and see what others are saying.

Please join this new initiative and have your say – not just once, but whenever you wish to share your views.
