FIPO Charter for Patients and their Doctors

FIPO have launched their Charter for Patients and their Doctors at a meeting at Church House Conference Centre in November 2007.  The Health Minister Professor Lord Darzi of Denham, professional medical associations, medical peers, health care providers and think tanks all offered their support for the Charter.  The parallels between the NHS and the independent sector were noted.

The Charter and professional rationale behind it can be downloaded from the FIPO website http://www.fipo.org.uk/docs/patientcharter.htm
