Healthwatch Warwickshire's Annual Conference 2019
On the 17th of October 2019, Healthwatch Warwickshire held our 6th Annual Conference and our first ever Annual General Meeting. This year we held the conference at Leamington Spa Town Hall. The conference focused on the local plans for the NHS.
Healthwatch Warwickshire’s Chair, Liz Hancock opened the conference by welcoming everyone and expressing thanks to our many stakeholders and partners. Claire Jackson then summarised the achievements of Healthwatch Warwickshire over the last year, including the Wellbeing Survey, The Rights to Access Healthcare Project, four Enter and View care home visits, The NHS Long Term Plan engagement, and our work around Primary Care Networks which included a survey and two Standing Conferences. Chris Bain, Chief Executive of Healthwatch Warwickshire, presented the findings of the Primary Care Networks Survey, of which a full report will be released soon, gave a summary of our standing conferences, and reflected on the CQC state of care report.
