During covid-19, healthcare services rapidly changed the way in which they offer care to patients whether in hospitals or in the community. The pandemic also changed the way in which we communicate with one another markedly. Challenging Conversations provided a forum for discussing many of these issues and focused on what we have learned and how we can make things better. It is an engaging, interesting and informative digital round table that brought together clinicians, experts and those with a range of lived experience. Although the series has come to natural end, you can still watch the entire back-catalogue of webinars on this page.
