#Conversations in 2019 took place on 16th -
20th September 2019 in St Michael's Hospital
and 23rd - 28th September 2019 in
Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. It was a fantastic two weeks
of activities, staff awards and conversations!
Take a look at one of our newsletters.

#conversations weeks:
2017
Our 2017 #conversations initiative
ran from 25th to the 29th of September. We
encouraged staff, patients and parents to talk to us about our
services.
We think continuing communication is
important and part of this process is including everyone in the
discussions that affect them. The 2017 #conversations week
encouraged us to spend the time having conversations, big and
small, and with different people who are invested in our shared
vision. This all contributes to how we want our services to develop
and how we can all work together to achieve this.
We focused on discharge and how we
can work to make it better. In 2016 we designed our Partnership
Charter and this was launched during #conversations in 2017. We
also gave everyone the chance to say a Big Thank You to anyone who
made a real difference to their hospital visit.
The week was kindly supported by Above and Beyond.

In its first year #Conversations
ran from 14th to 23rd September and at the heart of the campaign
was an aspiration to change current thinking and embed a new way of
working in partnership.
47 staff and 40 volunteers gave their time to participate
in 57 separate activities all designed to engage children, young
people, families and staff in different ways including ward
roadshows, hospital based well being sessions, dolls dress up
sessions in play areas, reception events, job shadowing, and a fete
in the hospital garden. The event was launched by a music
video starring patients and staff, which reached 50,000 families on
Facebook.
