The healthcare sector is subject to many rapid changes in: technology, policy,
demographics and financial investment. It is thus essential that an effective
dynamic infrastructure planning system integrates care service design, estates
planning, accessibility and carbon analysis. In this change oriented scenario, the
importance of stakeholder consultation and public participation is highly topical
with widespread advocacy in government policy literature and healthcare
literature. The main aim of this paper is to explore how decision making and
stakeholder consultation can drive value within infrastructure decision making in
line with Section 242 of the NHS Act 2007. This has been achieved through
interpretation of mini web-based case studies of consultation exercises conducted
within various PCTs in England. Stakeholder consultation is investigated through
different perspectives and at different levels of detail. A framework is further
developed based on the literature review as proposed by various authors in order
to ensure that stakeholder consultation policy and practice is more efficient and
effectively delivered.
