Techniques to use when consulting families about child health services.
Government policy proposed by Lord Darzi (2009) and others has highlighted the importance of consultation with patients and carers. NHS foundation trusts have a duty to consult local populations of patients, and these include children and their parents. In this article suggestions are made about how such consultation can be demonstrated by children's nurses. It outlines three techniques that nurses can use: patient stories, café scientifique and spotlight sessions.
