Expert Highlights: The Women’s Health Hub Toolkit

The Primary Care Women’s Health Forum (PCWHF) has developed a range of resources for anyone interested in finding out more about how to create a Women’s Health Hub in their locality.

This recording of the live launch webinar introduces the PCWHF's Women's Health Hub Toolkit, including:

• Why the Health Hub model was designed
• What is the Women’s Health Hub model?
• Examples of successful Hub development.

Hosted by the PCWHF’s Chair Dr Anne Connolly MBE, the webinar also features a breakdown of the sections of the Toolkit:

• Step 1: Situation - Mapping local provision; Identifying need
• Step 2: Solution – Personalising the project plan; Financial viablility & planning; Identifying and training a sustainable workforce
• Step 3: Success – Evaluating performance; Measuring success

The Toolkit has been created by women's health experts who understand the challenges of providing joined-up, accessible women’s healthcare in primary care settings. The Toolkit supports commissioners and providers in developing a Women's Health Hub model designed to tackle fragmentation of services and meet the needs of the local population, ultimately improving patient access and outcomes.

A Q&A session rounds up the webinar, with answers from the expert panel which includes Dr Anne Connolly, Dr Aamena Salar, Dr Amanda Britton, James Woolgar, and Lesley Wylde.
