Familiarity with the NHS England patient and carer race equality framework (PCREF) and how AMHP dataset development can complement the PCREF dataset development.

The expert adviser will support PCH to build on previous AMHP dataset work, to further develop the draft national metrics, data items, definitions and lookup tables. A steering group will also be in place to provide oversight and steer the development and delivery of the project. The steering group will be the Data subgroup of the AMHP Partnership Group, which has been set up by the Office of the Chief Social Worker. Key objectives 1.
