On the 16th March 2022, CDC ran a national webinar on Health Advice Compliance. The webinar was aimed at health professionals who work with children with SEND and strategic leads (SEND Leads, Children's Health Commissioners, DCO/DMOs, DSCOs), as well as regional parent/carer forum representatives.
The webinar consisted of:
- Welcome and introduction from Amanda Allard (Deputy Director, CDC) and poll questions;
- An update from Anna Gardiner (Assistant Director, CDC) on CDC learning from delivery this year (EHCP focused);
- A presentation from Jo Pritchard (DCO, Devon CCG) around Torbay's escalation process for late Appendix C's (health contribution);
- And a video recording of Lesley Platts (DCO, Islington) on approaches to prevent disputes, developing an integrated outcomes framework.
We finished the event by going into smaller breakout groups for reflections and discussions, which weren’t recorded.
