There is a real buzz around the launch of our Randomised Coffee Trial @ SCH. Join in today via this form and in late October you will be randomly matched to another member of SCH staff. You both then agree a time and place to meet for coffee (or other drink) during November and just chat for 30-40 mins.
Why?…it’s a good way to meet new colleagues, make connections and find out more about each other.
You can talk about anything you like ….it doesn't have to be a job related …but it can be...don't miss out!
Things about children & social care...
A strengths-based approach (SBA) to social care focuses on identifying the strengths, or assets, as well as the needs and difficulties of children, young people and families. This briefing from Social Care Institute for Excellence describes how SBAs work and assesses their effectiveness. The values and principles that inform this approach are not new, but there has been a rapidly growing interest over the last five years in such approaches. These approaches are also about co-production – people providing care working in equal partnership with those who need it to design and deliver services.
Things about Childhood Tuberculosis...This article looks at The Changing Landscape of Childhood Tuberculosis in the United Kingdom. They describe the recent epidemiology of childhood TB in the UK, how this compares to TB in adults, and document changes with time (2000-2015).
Things about health inequalities...The aim of this systematic review is to examine the effect of age on associations between household income and overall health from birth to adolescence, and whether age patterns vary by country. It is uncertain whether income-related health inequalities remain stable, widen, or narrow as children age, which impacts optimal timing of equity-focused interventions.
