User needs study

Pilot interviews with Healthcare Assistants, Managers and Junior Doctors have been held in Birmingham and the Black Country; North Central London; and County Durham and Tees Valley. Several more are scheduled for February and early March. This work will inform the final survey to NHS staff. A briefing summarising interim top level findings will be prepared and circulated during March.

Health Promotion Resource Units

This week a questionnaire, commissioned by the NLH, goes out to all England-based Health Resources Units (HPUs). The project aims to provide a picture of the staff, skills, and services of HPUs. This will be used as a basis from which a vision for HPUs, within the context of the National Library for Health (NLH), can be crafted. If you think your unit should be completing the questionnaire, and you do not receive an electronic copy by Monday, 28 February 2005, please email sandie.nicholson@elpct.nhs.uk requesting a copy.
