Raising Dignity Concerns

 

Guidance for Trainees and Educators

The work of the Allyship Network has led to NHS England North West developing guidance for trainees on how to raise a dignity concern; and guidance for First Listeners and Second Messengers on how to manage these concerns:

 

Peer Allies

The terminology First Listener is used to describe the person you first raise a concern to, if you are unsure who to contact, we would suggest speaking with a Peer Ally to begin with.

Our Peer Allies have a diverse range of characteristics and experiences, to raise a dignity concern with a Peer Ally as a First Listener, please complete this short form. The information you provide will be kept confidential and will only be used for the purpose of allocating a Peer Ally.

Further information regarding the Allyship Network is available on the The Allyship Network - Leading on Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in the North West page of the website.
