Expert Patients Support Group
What is it?
Expert Patients Support Groups have been established to offer ongoing support and continued involvement in matters relating to health and social care services.
The Support Group members are people who have completed an Expert Patients Programme. It is a social environment where:
- information and support is provided to help members improve their health and well-being
- members can meet health service staff to hear about how local health services operate and to have a 'say'
- experiences can be shared with other members of the group
