Effective Visiting  
April 2003
An overview of the practicalities of lay visiting in the NHS, and an exploration of new challenges facing lay visitors, such as the monitoring of race equality issues and the development of a patient-centre checklist.
                                                                                                                     By: Nikki Joule, Ros Levenson and Sue Towns  -  14 pages
Equalities and the Role of the Lay Representative
September 2002
Training to CHC Members to:
  • Provide an overview on the range of discriminations that operate within society and legislation to address this
  • Provide opportunity to consider impact of discrimination on health
  • Provide more detailed information about racism specifically, and an opportunity to explore how raise operates on an individual and institutional basis
  • Provide information about the impact of the Macpherson Report, the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 3000
  • Look at practical and effective ways for lay representatives within the NHS to progress equalities
                                                                                                                                     Facilitator:  Christine Sheppard - 20 pages
Analysis of the Training Needs of CHC Members
March 1993  ... A project committed by ACHCEW.
A report of a project carried out over the first quarter of 1993.  The aim of the project was to identify the learning needs of CHC members, including Chairs and Vice Chairs, and to make recommendations for suitable training provision.
                                                                                                                                                         Ruth Valentine, Consultant 
Self Reviews in CHCs - Facilitator's Manual
July 1992
A Self Review day is principally to help members and staff set priorities for the organisation for the next year, but can also be an invaluable tool to help all members review the previous year's work or address problems with the organisation's structure.
                                                                                                                   Cath Arnold, Janet Finucane, Nathan Lee and Barry Taylor, ACHCEW
