Involving you

NHS Kent and Medway's  Your Local NHS: What Matters Most is a programme to listen, learn, and shape services together.  

Change is happening in healthcare, both nationally and locally, guided by the NHS 10-year plan, which focuses on three big shifts:  

  • more help and care in the community, not just in hospitals  
  • using technology, like apps and video calls, instead of paper-based forms  
  • helping people stay well, not just treating them when they're sick.  

To make these changes, we need to hear from you - patients, families, staff, and communities - about what's important.
