Following discussions with colleagues in the Quality Improvement team at the Health Services Executive (HSE) in Ireland over the previous few months, EHFF on behalf of their major project CEMPaC (www.cempac.org) signed a service agreement in April 2019 with HSE for input during 2019 to support the HSE’s patient engagement strategy. The following month we held three workshops in Dublin, between May 23rd and June 28th, with Jeni Bremner and Jim Phillips of CEMPaC taking the major role. Although attendance from patient representatives and health service managers was modest, the events have provided valuable information to guide the activities for the rest of 2019. A further workshop is planned for the Autumn together with staff and patient representative training. During the current period CEMPaC has also launched the first phase of its free online training for patient empowerment (see: http://www.cempac.org/en/get-well-stay-well/ )
