The ME Association believes that effective healthcare for people with ME/CFS and Long Covid is essential, and we need to ensure that the NICE Guideline on ME/CFS is implemented effectively.
While national approaches are being adopted, we also want to focus on healthcare delivery at the local level.
This 12-month pilot has been commissioned so that we can learn how best to influence and improve the care that people receive by working with local healthcare providers and the people that need to use these services.
The study will focus on the ICB region of Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, and West Berkshire:
- we will engage with local people and their healthcare providers to increase awareness of these medical conditions and ensure that appropriate services are made available.
- we will also be engaging on behalf of individuals who have experienced problems with healthcare regardless of where they live in the UK.
We are looking for 2 Project Officers. You will need to be enthusiastic, responsible, and well-organised, with experience of working in a project environment. You can remotely work from home or from head office in Gawcott and will report to the Head of Health and Social Care.
