3. Engaging patients and the public - we all benefit... Moral Business Social and political Health Legal Engaging with patients and the public can happen at two levels: Individual level – 'my say' in decisions about my own care and treatment (often referred to as shared decision-making) Collective level – ‘my’ or ‘our say’ in decisions about commissioning and delivery of services The Engagement Cycle focuses on the collective level

4. A conceptual framework for PPE Individual My say in decisions about care and treatment Collective Our say in planning, design and delivery of services Information Feedback Influence

5. InformationFeedbackInfluence Individual My say in decisions about care and treatment Information to patients about care and treatment Opportunities for individuals to provide feedback (e.g. PALS, complaints) Ways that individuals can take more control and/or manage their own condition Collective Our say in planning, design and delivery of services Information to patients and the public about local services Opportunities for patients and public to feedback or comment on services (quantitative or qualitative; consultations, etc) Ways that people can have more input into, or influence over decisions (e.g. co- production, patient/user-led initiatives) A conceptual framework for PPE OUTCOMES
