Influencing service reviews and changes in your workplace: a guide for BAPO members 
Many health providers and services throughout the UK are currently subject to proposals to save money or restructure. Where services are no longer meeting the needs of patients, BAPO and UNISON are supportive of considered re-structuring based on broad consultation with service users and staff and want to ensure that no long-term detriment to the health service for people who use our services, often the most vulnerable groups of people within our society. As health staff brace themselves against the effects of reduced budgets, vacancy freezes and cuts to jobs and services, there has never been a more critical time for prosthetic and orthotic staff to insist on involvement in the review and restructuring of the services.  UNISON has developed this guidance to assist BAPO members to influence service reviews and give you an idea of the types of questions you could be raising where cuts or changes to services are proposed. The guide can be found on our member section and at:
