NHS Leeds: Race For Health peer review

How can NHS Leeds embed Race Equality into its commissioning processes?

 The key questions for the review will be as follows:

 

   

1.      To what extent have some of the PCT's current commissioning practices taken its diverse communities into account? 

 

2.      How well do PCT Commissioners understand and systematically utilise Equality & Diversity systems and tools in commissioning practices?

 

3.      What more needs to be done to ensure that Race Equality is truly embedded in all commissioning practices within the PCT?

 

 

 The Peer Review team will be split into three working groups during the Review and will be asked to explore the research questions through three focus areas of work. Two groups will explore different commissioning models and how Race Equality has been taken into account within these models. The third group will explore with Commissioners their understanding of the systems that the PCT has in place to embed equality and diversity in commissioning practices.  

 NHS Leeds invites peer reviewers with an interest, or experience in the issues to be explored in the review. Ideally, the peer review team will have around 8 ‑ 9 members. In particular, the PCT is keen to work with a team with relevant knowledge and experience and therefore encourage expressions of interest from:

  • Commissioners
  • Public Health Managers/Directors
  • Equality and Diversity Leads
  • Public Patient Involvement Leads
  • Organisational Development Managers
  • Those with experience of working within an area with high % BME communities, particularly where they have been successful in increasing the update of cardiac rehabilitation services.

 

The closing date for expressions of interest is: 15th January 2010.

The peer review team will be confirmed on Monday 18th January. Practical arrangements will be confirmed at least 2-weeks prior to the peer review.

Race for Health



Race for Health is a Department of Health-funded, NHS based programme that works with PCTs and Trusts to drive forward improvements in health for people from black, and minority ethnic backgrounds. We believe that the time for simply talking about race inequality is over. We support real change across the NHS, with the implementation of legislation as a starting point.
