New Sweeney collaborative in partnership with Alder Hey

22 October 2018

In partnership with Alder Hey children’s hospital, we are launching a new collaborative programme on the care of children and families. Due to start early 2019, we will work with six teams from NHS organisations to equip them with skills and support to carry out patient-centred service design.

Event details

We are now inviting applications to join a new collaborative programme on the care of children and families. In partnership with Alder Hey children’s hospital in Liverpool, we will work with six teams from NHS organisations to equip them with skills and support to carry out patient-centred service design. The teams will come together to learn these methods, teach and learn from each other.

What’s on offer?

  • Structured training in patient-centred service design techniques
  • Collaborative learning events to create space for teams to work together and learn from others
  • Tailored teaching from our expert faculty, including both clinical leaders and service users
  • Written, video and audio materials to support the learning
  • Ongoing coaching and mentoring from accredited personal development coaches
  • A strong track record in working in the care of children and families

We hold two one-day master classes and a ‘celebration day’ to showcase projects and share learning. These events will be held at Alder Hey’s stunning new ‘hospital in the park’ in Liverpool.

Alongside these, over a six-month period, each team will have access to up to 20 hours of support from experienced improvement coaches. Our programmes are backed up by two webinars and provision of online resources. Your team will receive up to 35 hours of training and support over the course of the programme.
