PPAG vlogs

In this series of video logs, or vlogs, members of our Patient and Public Advisory Group explore different aspects of the West Midlands SDE from a patient and public point of view.

Data Access Committee

The Data Access Committee will review and approve requests to access the data held in the West Midlands SDE. The committee will ensure the data is used only:

• by the right people
• in the right way
• for the right reasons.

We are looking for people from any background to become members of the committee. You do not need to have any healthcare data, scientific or medical knowledge - just a willingness to help ensure health and care data is used for the benefit of patients and the public. If you are interested in applying to become a member of the West Midlands SDE Data Access Committee, please email us at WMSDE@uhb.nhs.uk.

The diagram below shows the current composition of our Data Access Committee.
