“P4C has unanimously agreed that we will have the right person in the right place at the right time, and for the right reason.”
Anne Brannan is the development officer for Partnership 4 Change (P4C), managed by VANL Her role is to promote participation, improve joint working and support Service Users & Carers involvement in the joint partnership arrangements for Community Care within North Lanarkshire. P4C will help make the changes that will enhance service provision in our communities within North Lanarkshire both in health and social care, and links the four key service user carer organisations in North Lanarkshire.
This group consists of members of four service user and carer organisations:
• Lanarkshire Links
• North Lanarkshire Disability Forum
• North Lanarkshire Carers Together
• Voice of Experience Forum
These organisations represent older people, people with disabilities, and people with mental health issues and their carers. Both voluntary and statutory services have a duty to influence planning of services where possible to improve the quality of care to the people who most need it. There is also representation from NHS Lanarkshire and Social Work.
These strategically positioned organisations work jointly to share information, develop practice and influence change. The underlying goal is to achieve positive outcomes for the service users and carers they represent. P4C aims to influence service planning with a view to improving the quality of care within our localities. The changes will not only improve services, but more importantly the lives of those who most need them.
“Your opinions matter” You can have a voice and be involved in the planning of future services. If you would like to contact me for further information, please do not hesitate to contact Anne for an informal chat.
