The Allied Health Contribution • The AHP National Commissioning Network • Early achievements • The paper, The Healthcare Professionals Commissioning Network – access to a wealth of expertise • Sharing critical reflections/assumptions upon my experience of coordinating the AHP paper to be stronger together
The AHP National Commissioning Network • All AHP clinicians involved in commissioning • 12 diverse professions, all with sub-specialties • A sub-group of the HCPCN • An online network as part of NHS networks • Face to face meetings
Early achievements • Contribution to listening exercise in collaboration with nurses through the Nursing and Allied Health Professional Contribution to Commissioning Working Group • Mapping and merging networks in parallel with work lead by the Professional Leadership Team to: • engage SHA AHP leads • develop a database of key clinical AHP experts
