Bite-size guides to support patient and public participation in the NHS

Bite-size guides to support patient and public participation in the NHS NHS England has developed some bite-size guides to support patient and public participation in the NHS. These guides are linked to the Transforming participation in Health and Social Care guidance (published September 2013). The guides have been developed with partners and by reviewing good practice in each area. They aim to support Clinical Commissioning Groups and others to plan and deliver good patient and public participation. You can access the guides via the following links:

• Bite-size guide 1 – Principles for Participation in Commissioning
• Bite-size guide 2 – Governance for Participation
• Bite-size guide 3 – Planning for Participation
• Bite-size guide 4 – Budgeting for Participation

These four Bite-size guides form the first batch of a suite of bite-size resources, and more will follow throughout the year.
