Coronavirus has meant that we have made many changes to healthcare services, such as using more technology and telephone appointments, and prioritising certain services.
BNSSGCCG know that the coronavirus affects Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities differently. This is a chance to have your say and share your experiences. They would like to learn more about how these changes have affected diverse BAME communities, what has worked well and what can be improved.
This event will be held on Zoom on 17 August 2020 3.30 – 5.30 pm.
You can sign up for the event here.
If you have any questions about the event, or would like to book your place by telephone or email, please contact bnssg.inclusion@nhs.net or call 0117 900 2655.
