Public invited to NHS Board meeting

Local people are invited to attend a meeting of the Board of Dudley Integrated Health and Care NHS Trust (DIHC).

The Board meets monthly in different venues around the borough and discusses key issues for the Dudley population and local priorities.

The next meeting takes place on Tuesday 7th February 2023 from 9:30 am until 11:30 am and will be held at Brierley Hill Health and Social Care Centre in Brierley Hill.

People can attend the meeting in person and are invited to submit questions to the Board in advance.

Harry Turner, Chairman for DIHC, said: “Our Board meetings are a great way to find out what is happening locally in health and care and to see how decisions are made.

“We encourage people to come along and join us and see what progress has been made over the last month. We welcome questions from the public and the Board is always keen to hear perspectives from local people.

“If you have a question, please submit in advance of the meeting and we can respond.”

Philip King, Chief Operating Officer for DIHC, said: “This meeting will have a focus on our First Contact Mental Health Practitioners, and we will hear first-hand about the impact their service has with patients.

We will also look at the feedback from our public conversation on High Oak Surgery and consider the next steps.”

Members of the public who would like to attend the meeting or send a question in advance should email
