Reflections on implementing the Patient and Carer Race Equality Framework

Join us for an online discussion on improving access to mental health care for people from minority ethnic communities through the MHIN programme and the implementation of anti-racism framework: Patient and carer race equality framework (PCREF).

Event

25 Mar 2024 - 1:00pm - 25 Mar 2024 - 3:00pm

NHS England launched the Patient and Carer Race Equality Framework (PCREF) in November 2023, the first mandatory anti-racism framework for mental health services.

The framework aims to improve experiences for diverse communities by requiring mental health trusts and service providers to co-develop culturally appropriate care models.

Reflections on implementing the Patient and Carer Race Equality Framework: what have we learnt so far?

Join us on for an online discussion on improving access to mental health care for people from minority ethnic communities through the implementation of the PCREF anti-racism framework.

This event is being organised by the NIHR Mental Health Implementation Network (MHIN), a national programme which aims to drive collaborations and changes in mental health practice.

The event will explore learning from a MHIN project to implement and evaluate community engagement systems for people from ethnic minority communities to improve access to mental health care.
