Service User and Carer involvement in Nurse Education

Developed in partnership


We are grateful to the following people who were invited to work with us on the development of this work. Their involvement and contributions along our journey have enabled us to embrace the ethos of co-production and publish this resource for all interested in nurse education. We are indebted to Peter Bates who has worked with us on researching many facets of service user and carer engagement and contributed greatly to this work.

In the spirit of partnership working many Universities have freely shared examples of their work and they are too numerous to mention, but they are referenced throughout the work and we are eternally grateful for their generosity.
