Implementing PCREF: improving racialised experiences in mental health care

Description

This work is to develop two national guidance products to support consistent, evidence‑based implementation of the Patient and Carer Race Equality Framework (PCREF): system‑level guidance for Integrated Care Boards to strengthen governance, accountability and oversight, and provider‑level Quality Improvement guidance to help mental health trusts apply PCREF competencies in practice. Together, these resources will equip systems and providers with the tools, templates and evidence needed to reduce racial inequalities in mental health access, experience and outcomes, informed by co‑production, exemplar site learning and legislative requirements.
