What do we mean by patient, carer and public involvement?

Patient and public involvement (PPI) is:

• individual involvement by the patient in the decision about their own health; and
• the involvement and contribution of patients, carers and the public in the development of health services so that they may shape, influence and monitor services.

The abbreviation PPI is used to encompass all involvement work across NHS Leeds Community Healthcare (LCH) including patients, carers, and members of the public and service users

• lead on the implementation of Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust Patient, Carer and Public Involvement Strategy across the organisation;
• provide operational and strategic support to services;
• undertake performance monitoring for Patient, Carer and Public Involvement; and
