Your chance to debate directly with senior NHS Wandsworth managers at the LINks Meeting 8th June.

Not just one but two senior managers from NHS Wandsworth are coming to present to us ….. and then listen to LINk member’s  and patients views on important issues for users of health services.

Di Caulfeild-Stoker Director of Provider Services NHS Wandworth  will talk about plans to separate out the community health services from the commissioning functions of NHS Wandsworth. What is the preferred organisational arrangement for the new body? see our news items on provider services posted on 22nd April this year for information on what this is and what it might mean for users of these services. You can see the topic discussed (they call it ‘Externalisation’) in the April 2009 Wandsworth Board papers here

Rachel Miles Associate Director of Strategy will talk about the current plans and public consultation on GP and polyclinic services in South Wandsworth. Do you want polyclinics and if so what services should they provide? For more about this consultation see our news item on 5th June with links to the consultation document and a questionnaire for you to complete after you have heard what Rachel Miles has to say.

Both will give their talks after we have got through the agenda for the Executive meeting

All are welcome to come along and listen and have your say!
