Yesterday at the BMJ leader conference Team Queen Mary University of London and Barts Health NHS Trust (plus the amazing Surviving In Scrubs co-founder Dr Chelcie Jewitt) spoke of what it takes to create a safe work culture within the NHS eco-system. There is lots in place around data-driven monitoring of patient safety. But when it comes to data-driven improvement with respect to NHS staff, I think that the NHS lags behind the Higher Education sector. I spoke about how the NHS could draw lessons from the Athena Swan process where self-assessment of progress toward (gender) equity is independently assessed by Advance HE Equality, Diversity + Inclusion. This allows a long-term picture to emerge and for longer-term wins to be tackled as our recent gold award for the Queen Mary Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry demonstrates. Colleagues Dr Kyle Ring, Dr Chelcie Jewitt , Dr Andy Williams and Mr Ajit Abraham shared their very interesting takes on how to create safe work culture. We all agreed that organisations are collections of people, and safety can only exist when it is exemplified by all- with the recognition that we don’t all start from a level playing-field on how safe we feel in society in general. Processes are powerful ways of improving (and worsening) a sense of safety at work. Receiving ‘maternity’ leave forms when a gay man takes adoption leave does not lead to a sense of safety and belonging. Nor do impregnable reasonable adjustment policies when someone returns to work following a stroke. As leaders we need to commit to humility and life-long learning because good EDI practice evolves as does societal understanding of social justice. Just think of how much we have learned from the ‘Me Too’ and ‘BLM’ movements. Thanks to James Mountford and BMJ leader for the invite !

The Heathcare Strategy Forum nears an end with our closing keynote presentation from Ben Jeeves, Associate Chief Clinical Information Officer for Midlands Partnership University NHS Foundation Trust. Ben highlights how speech recognition is becoming more commonplace in the medical industry as hospitals and healthcare providers strive to cut costs and adopt more efficient workflows. Ben's session gives an honest and transparent view of why digital innovations can fail. Digital dictation/ speech recognition is discussed with the backdrop of clinical challenges, along with current challenges in the NHS, expectations of technology and new solutions being deployed, and how these can contribute to the perception of innovation failures. #HealthcareSF #NHS #SpeechRecognition

The concept of digital transformation within the NHS can be interpreted and understood in a multitude of ways, impacting individuals at various levels. In essence, it aims to empower the public to engage with the NHS through digital platforms while ensuring the protection and controlled access of their personal information to authorized individuals.

Type 2 diabetes affects over 4 million people a year, and data from Diabetes UK suggests that 1 in 10 people could be living with the condition by 2030. Finding solutions and interventions that help people reduce their risk of developing the condition has never been more urgent. ⚠️ That’s why we were proud to help our client, Meddbase, and the NHS Humber and North Yorkshire Integrated Care Board (ICB), to reach, educate and convert other ICBs to use Meddbase’s technology to increase uptake of referrals to the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme, a clinically effective approach for drastically cutting the risk of developing type 2 diabetes. 📉 The results? After generating extensive media coverage and engagement with our educational report, more than 100 NHS decision-makers attended our campaign webinar, there was a spike in inbound enquiries and Meddbase generated their first sale to an NHS integrated care board within 3 months of the event. ✅ All this for a company who had never worked with the NHS before. 👍 See the full case study at: https://lnkd.in/e7SZX9P4 #DiabetesWeek

The NHS Federated Data Platform (FDP) has the potential to significantly improve how the NHS meets patient needs, both today and in the future. Here's how: >> Improved Care Coordination: > Reduced Information Silos: FDP connects patient information across different NHS organisations, allowing for a more holistic view of their health journey. This eliminates the need for repeated data collection and ensures healthcare professionals have the most up-to-date information to make informed decisions. > Targeted Resource Allocation: By providing insights into population health trends, the FDP can help Integrated Care Systems (ICSs) better understand their communities' needs and allocate resources more effectively. This can lead to improved preventative care, earlier interventions, and better management of long-term conditions. >> Enhanced Efficiency: > Reduced Administrative Burden: FDP can automate data sharing and reporting, freeing up clinician time from administrative tasks and allowing them to focus on patient care. > Improved Bed Management: Real-time data on bed availability across different care settings can help optimise bed allocation, reducing waiting times for hospital admissions and ensuring patients receive care in the most appropriate setting. >> Future-Proofing the NHS: > Data-Driven Decision Making: The FDP provides a platform for analyzing vast amounts of healthcare data, enabling data-driven decision making for service planning, resource allocation, and identifying areas for improvement. > Supporting New Technologies: The platform can be integrated with future digital health solutions, such as telehealth and remote monitoring tools, further personalising and improving patient care. Overall, the NHS FDP represents a significant step towards a more connected and data-driven healthcare system with the potential to significantly improve how the NHS meets the needs of patients, both now and in the future.

The recent experience of Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust (RDUH) with their new electronic patient record (#EPR) system highlights a key challenge facing the NHS: getting the most out of cutting-edge technology. While RDUH implemented a state-of-the-art Epic EPR system in 2020, challenges remain in utilising its full functionality. This isn't uncommon. Many trusts across the UK, including Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust and Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust, have encountered similar hurdles. This is where the UKDHC comes in. We understand that advanced healthcare technology requires a skilled workforce to unlock its true potential. We believe in a future where advanced technology empowers a highly skilled workforce to deliver exceptional patient care. Is your Trust facing similar challenges? Contact the UKDHC today and let's work together to bridge the gap between technology and its effective use in improving patient care.
