Help develop a quality indicator set for perioperative care This project seeks input from patients, carers and healthcare staff to collaborate on a standard set of quality indicators for perioperative care, and improve the way such indicators are developed.

Calling #NHS colleagues. There is still time to share your views on the best ways to measure standards of care before, during, and after #surgery.

Part 1 of our study closes on 6 Jan!

Take part in both stages and receive a certificate as evidence of contribution to research.

How improvement can help NHS productivity This analysis sets out five key actions to help leaders develop and implement a more holistic approach to productivity.

The government has promised to make productivity a central focus of the 10-Year Health Plan.

Is the NHS facing a 'quad-demic' this winter? No, but it is finding it harder and harder to cope with 'normal' winter pressures. Plus flu might still have a nasty kicker in store this winter.

Headlines are warning of a 'quad-demic' about the hit the NHS, but data show that a 'quad-demic' is v unlikely.

The worry is not that the NHS is about to be hit by unprecedented demand, but that it is unable to cope with normal demand.

I've written about it here
