Attended a programme on Co-producing professional healthcare education; how do we all work together 12/09/2023

Title of Learning Activity: Co-producing professional healthcare education; how do we all work together 12/09/2023

There were several presentations throughout the day with keynotes like service user and carer co-production with staff and student experiences from UCLAN and unpacking the ‘Co’ of Co-production. Community Engagement and Service Users was a participatory action research group at the University of Central Lancashire in 2004.

The program featured a lot of speakers with their own specialised knowledge and experiences of mental health. Many of the speakers shared their experiences throughout their careers and some are also service users. Learning from experts and service users about their experiences was beneficial.

Also, I attended a presentation from the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) about the role of the NMC, public safety, and public engagement. However, their presentation slides did not work, and we ended up running out of time.
