Service Improvement Plan For A Service
Service improvement is arguably one of the most important challenges facing the National Health
Service (NHS) today, as both patients and service users search for a 'good quality' service, and
expect services to be both efficient and effectual. All staff within the health service need to be
educated and competent in their roles, in order to be able to offer a service that is beneficial to the
patients that make use of it. Fitzgerald et al (2013), described service improvement as '...a planned
and targeted effort to improve patient–facing outcomes from a service...'. The key message in this is
that the effort of service improvement should be both 'planned' and 'targeted' to a specific audience,
as well as provide an improvement in the outcomes for a patient. Without a targeted, specific
improvement for patients, the focus of a service improvement proposal is lost, and little value or
quality is gained from the change. In light of this, the assignment aims to discuss and explore a
service improvement proposal that will improve 'patient–facing' outcomes for people with dual
diagnosis of a mental illness (MI) and a learning disability (LD). The improvement proposal in
question, is specifically, a workshop that is aimed at educating and improving the knowledge and
confidence of nurses who come into contact with patients who have a LD, and who may also be
experiencing a MI, that may be overlooked or be going unnoticed. In order to discuss the
implementation of the service

The two values that best describe NSCS would be, people and teamwork. According to the slides
"people" means fairness, supportiveness, and respecting individuals. People best fits NSCS because
we respect each other's suggestions and ideas. Also, the voting system we have in place ensures
"fairness" for everyone. Team work is the second value which NSCS demonstrates. According to the
slides, teamwork means collaboration and cooperation. The E–board collaborates on many different
topics whether it be general body meeting ideas or the committees we want to implement into the
organization. I believe the family oriented attitude we have makes it easier for everyone to
cooperate and listen to one another. People and team work complement one another because
without people there isn't team work. Cooperation and respect within a group of people can make a
big difference when decisions need to be made. The collaboration of people can take an idea from

This is a reflective essay based on my attendance at a multidisciplinary team (MDT) meeting whilst

the importance of the multidisciplinary team within the mental health environment and discuss
factors that can influence the success or failure of multidisciplinary teams.
Mental health teams generally comprise of psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, nurses, occupational

This model comprises of a process that helps the individual look at a situation and think about their
thoughts and feelings at the time of the incident. Reflective skills help us to think about what could
have been done, so that if a similar situation occurs again the experience gained can be used to deal
with the situation in a professional manner (Burns et al 1997).
To enable me to use this situation for my reflection the patient will be referred to as "Kate". This is
in order that her real name is protected and that confidentially maintained in line with the NMC

Kate is a 66–year–old lady, retired from her job as a nurse 10 years ago. She has lived alone since
the death of her husband 7 years ago, and has one very supportive son who lives locally and visits

history of memory problems and it was decided that she should attend the day hospital for a period
of six weeks to be assessed and to be involved in therapeutic activities whilst there.
Whilst attending the day hospital she was observed, and found to be repetitive with obvious
evidence of fabrication, very disorientated, with poor concentration and very poor short–term

Leadership and Organisations: The organisational structure of the NHS in Wales
This essay aims to discuss the organisational structure of the NHS in Wales applying relevant
management and organisational theory. The essay includes the traits and contingency approaches
which is linked to leadership and management. In addition to this, it covers how the NHS implies
leadership and management into their organisational structure. In similar to this, the improvement
the NHS in Wales tend to make, will be discussed.
The National Health Service (NHS) in Wales is a public funded sector which provides healthcare
services to 3 million people. In 2009, the NHS in Wales went through changes to increase the quality
of healthcare provision.
On the 1st of October 2009, single local health organisation was created, which is responsible for
delivering healthcare within geographical area, instead of the Trust and the local health board
system. The current NHS services through seven health boards replacing twenty–two and three NHS
Trusts replacing seven in Wales. An example of a health board is the Cardiff and Vale University.
This health board has Executive Directors, the employees of the University Health Board (UHB),
and Independent Board Members (IMs), who were appointed to the UHB Board by the Minister
for Health and Social Services. One of the reason for the change was to ensure that all the patients
are provided with good services and to make sure that all the individuals' needs are

But Campbell (2012) argues that the modernisation of the NHS could have a diverse effect and
provide worse care especially for the more serious conditions such as cancer as inequalities will be
greater and poorer patients in lower socio–economic areas will be overlooked. The state of the public
finances and tightening of budgets means that the past system was becoming increasingly
unaffordable the new system will be responsive to the needs of patients and remove the layers of
bureaucracy which consumed money that could be better spent on services. The British Medical
Association (2010) stresses that it is not just finance that drives medical decisions as consideration
must be given to the clinical need of the local heath community.
The key legislative changes in the bill are; clinically led commissioning, provider regulation to
support innovative services, a greater voice for patients, a new focus for public heath, greater
accountability locally and nationally and streamlining of arms–lengths bodies.
Clinically lead commissioning puts GP's and health care professionals in the centre of decision
making and development of services so that they can provide care without the frustration caused by
involving primary care trusts. This will give the provider regulation to support innovative services

Challenges to the UK Health Care System Essay
Introduction In line with the majority of other developed countries, the United Kingdom (UK) has
offered its citizens a universal health care system that is free at the point of service. Funded
primarily by taxation, the system is popular and efficient. However, along with most other health
care systems around the world, it faces a series of challenges if it is to maintain viability, in the
twenty–first century. These issues include; long waiting times, an aging population, funding
challenges and the increasing cost of technology. History of Health Care in the UK The UK is a
sovereign country of almost 61,000,000 people comprising the nations of England, Scotland, Wales
and Northern Ireland. A highly evolved democratic country...show more content...
It also monitors the quality of services provided and develops new policies. The performance of the
NHS is also monitored by the Health–Care Commission, an independent executive agency that
performs annual reviews and ratings, and investigates complaints. According to Johnson and
Stoskopf (2008) there are a number of dimensions for measuring health care systems. The three
most frequent include: "population health measures, system efficiency measures, and patient
perceptions" (p.74). Other clinical measurements commonly used include infant mortality rates
and life expectancy. The UK has an infant mortality rate of 4.93 deaths per 1,000 live births, and
an average life expectancy of 78.85 years. Funding for the NHS is a combination of private and
public sources. All legal UK residents have access to the NHS and pay a payroll tax, which
equates approximately to 10% of earnings. Although health care provided by the NHS is largely
free, there are fees for certain services such as prescriptions, dental and optician services, which
are paid by all citizens who are working and make more than minimum wage. Recent Reforms In
2000, an effort was made by the UK government to resolve certain inequalities that had developed
within the NHS by releasing the "NHS Plan of 2000." This plan greatly increased spending on
employee pay, infrastructure, and access to services. Despite almost doubling spending in a ten year

Originally, I joined NHS out of curiosity. I had an acquaintance in the club who suggested I
apply–however I was perplexed by the two–essay application. I wanted to know if NHS was
selective because it was really great to be a member, or because it was great to say I was one. I also,
quite frankly, wondered if I would be accepted. However, since then I've realized NHS expects
commitment from its members for the sake of commitment– rather than for the sake of membership.
NHS has high expectations of its members, so that they can have high expectations for themselves.
For me, the requirements for NHS both detracted from, and added to, the club. For instance, NHS
requires more hours per member than most other service clubs on campus. This meant I had to
commit to NHS over other organizations; however giving more time to NHS also helped me place
more value in my membership. Similarly, the NHS application both discouraged, and sparked my
interest in joining. I find personally reflective writing–like that requested in the NHS application–
difficult, so for me the application required dedication to the club without the promise of return.

How The Nhs Have 6 Core Nursing Values
The NHS have 6 core nursing values, launched by England's chief nursing officer, Jane Cummings,
after the Mid–Staffordshire disaster. These 6C's were put into place to reinforce holistic nursing
(Delves–Yates, C. 2015), ensure that everybody within the National Health Service is doing
everything possible to ensure the best possible service for the patients, and to ensure that patients
were put at the heart of everything healthcare professionals do (Watterson, L. 2013). The 6 C's
include care, compassion, competence, commitment, courage and communication. All six of the
6C'S are all fundamental values when it comes to healthcare, however out of these six, the three that
I have chosen to write about are communication, compassion and courage. I have chosen these three
as I believe that they are the most imperative when it comes to delivering high–quality care for the
patients or service users.
Communication
Communication is defined as 'a transactional process involving participants who occupy different but
overlapping environments and create relationships through the exchange of messages, many of
which are affected by external, psychological and physiological noise' (Adler, R and Proctor, R.
2010). Communication doesn't just mean verbal communication, as non–verbal communication is
just as, if not, more important as verbal communication. According to Albert Mehrabian, only 7% of
a message is communicated through verbal communication, 38% is communicated through your

Sample Nhs Essays

  • 1. Service Improvement Plan For A Service Service improvement is arguably one of the most important challenges facing the National Health Service (NHS) today, as both patients and service users search for a 'good quality' service, and expect services to be both efficient and effectual. All staff within the health service need to be educated and competent in their roles, in order to be able to offer a service that is beneficial to the patients that make use of it. Fitzgerald et al (2013), described service improvement as '...a planned and targeted effort to improve patient–facing outcomes from a service...'. The key message in this is that the effort of service improvement should be both 'planned' and 'targeted' to a specific audience, as well as provide an improvement in the outcomes for a patient. Without a targeted, specific improvement for patients, the focus of a service improvement proposal is lost, and little value or quality is gained from the change. In light of this, the assignment aims to discuss and explore a service improvement proposal that will improve 'patient–facing' outcomes for people with dual diagnosis of a mental illness (MI) and a learning disability (LD). The improvement proposal in question, is specifically, a workshop that is aimed at educating and improving the knowledge and confidence of nurses who come into contact with patients who have a LD, and who may also be experiencing a MI, that may be overlooked or be going unnoticed. In order to discuss the implementation of the service Get more content on HelpWriting.net

The two values that best describe NSCS would be, people and teamwork. According to the slides "people" means fairness, supportiveness, and respecting individuals. People best fits NSCS because we respect each other's suggestions and ideas. Also, the voting system we have in place ensures "fairness" for everyone. Team work is the second value which NSCS demonstrates. According to the slides, teamwork means collaboration and cooperation. The E–board collaborates on many different topics whether it be general body meeting ideas or the committees we want to implement into the organization. I believe the family oriented attitude we have makes it easier for everyone to cooperate and listen to one another. People and team work complement one another because without people there isn't team work. Cooperation and respect within a group of people can make a big difference when decisions need to be made.

  • 4. Multidisciplinary Team Meeting Reflection Essay This is a reflective essay based on my attendance at a multidisciplinary team (MDT) meeting whilst on my two–week placement at a local mental health day hospital. The aim of this essay is to discuss the importance of the multidisciplinary team within the mental health environment and discuss factors that can influence the success or failure of multidisciplinary teams. Mental health teams generally comprise of psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, nurses, occupational therapists and social workers, but other therapists such as family therapists, psychotherapists and counsellors might also become involved in the care of the patient (Perkins & Repper 1998). Multidiscipline involvement is important within mental health nursing as people...show more content... This model comprises of a process that helps the individual look at a situation and think about their thoughts and feelings at the time of the incident. Reflective skills help us to think about what could have been done, so that if a similar situation occurs again the experience gained can be used to deal with the situation in a professional manner (Burns et al 1997). To enable me to use this situation for my reflection the patient will be referred to as "Kate". This is in order that her real name is protected and that confidentially maintained in line with the NMC (2002) Code of Professional Conduct. Description Kate is a 66–year–old lady, retired from her job as a nurse 10 years ago. She has lived alone since the death of her husband 7 years ago, and has one very supportive son who lives locally and visits 2–3 times a week. Kate was referred to the hospital by her doctor after presenting with an 18–month history of memory problems and it was decided that she should attend the day hospital for a period of six weeks to be assessed and to be involved in therapeutic activities whilst there. Whilst attending the day hospital she was observed, and found to be repetitive with obvious evidence of fabrication, very disorientated, with poor concentration and very poor short–term memory.

  • 6. Organisational Structure Of The Nhs Leadership and Organisations: The organisational structure of the NHS in Wales This essay aims to discuss the organisational structure of the NHS in Wales applying relevant management and organisational theory. The essay includes the traits and contingency approaches which is linked to leadership and management. In addition to this, it covers how the NHS implies leadership and management into their organisational structure. In similar to this, the improvement the NHS in Wales tend to make, will be discussed. The National Health Service (NHS) in Wales is a public funded sector which provides healthcare services to 3 million people. In 2009, the NHS in Wales went through changes to increase the quality of healthcare provision. On the 1st of October 2009, single local health organisation was created, which is responsible for delivering healthcare within geographical area, instead of the Trust and the local health board system. The current NHS services through seven health boards replacing twenty–two and three NHS Trusts replacing seven in Wales. An example of a health board is the Cardiff and Vale University.

  • 7. Essay NHS Policy This essay will examine the following statement in relation to reforms proposed in the Health and Social Care Bill 2011 "Funding and delivering high quality health and social care services is problematic to all governments irrespective of political persuasions" I will provide an overview of the bill and investigate through critical analysis recommendations in the Bill for clinically–led commissioning. This will enable me to illustrate the problems in delivering a high quality care service that is needed by the changing society and the challenges this causes policy makers who uphold the ideology of the NHS. The Bill states that " To safeguard its future the NHS needs to change to meet the challenges it faces – only by modernising can...show more content... But Campbell (2012) argues that the modernisation of the NHS could have a diverse effect and provide worse care especially for the more serious conditions such as cancer as inequalities will be greater and poorer patients in lower socio–economic areas will be overlooked. The state of the public finances and tightening of budgets means that the past system was becoming increasingly unaffordable the new system will be responsive to the needs of patients and remove the layers of bureaucracy which consumed money that could be better spent on services. The British Medical Association (2010) stresses that it is not just finance that drives medical decisions as consideration must be given to the clinical need of the local heath community. The key legislative changes in the bill are; clinically led commissioning, provider regulation to support innovative services, a greater voice for patients, a new focus for public heath, greater accountability locally and nationally and streamlining of arms–lengths bodies. Clinically lead commissioning puts GP's and health care professionals in the centre of decision making and development of services so that they can provide care without the frustration caused by involving primary care trusts. This will give the provider regulation to support innovative services Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Challenges to the UK Health Care System Essay Introduction In line with the majority of other developed countries, the United Kingdom (UK) has offered its citizens a universal health care system that is free at the point of service. Funded primarily by taxation, the system is popular and efficient. However, along with most other health care systems around the world, it faces a series of challenges if it is to maintain viability, in the twenty–first century. These issues include; long waiting times, an aging population, funding challenges and the increasing cost of technology. History of Health Care in the UK The UK is a sovereign country of almost 61,000,000 people comprising the nations of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. A highly evolved democratic country...show more content... It also monitors the quality of services provided and develops new policies. The performance of the NHS is also monitored by the Health–Care Commission, an independent executive agency that performs annual reviews and ratings, and investigates complaints. According to Johnson and Stoskopf (2008) there are a number of dimensions for measuring health care systems. The three most frequent include: "population health measures, system efficiency measures, and patient perceptions" (p.74). Other clinical measurements commonly used include infant mortality rates and life expectancy. The UK has an infant mortality rate of 4.93 deaths per 1,000 live births, and an average life expectancy of 78.85 years. Funding for the NHS is a combination of private and public sources. All legal UK residents have access to the NHS and pay a payroll tax, which equates approximately to 10% of earnings. Although health care provided by the NHS is largely free, there are fees for certain services such as prescriptions, dental and optician services, which are paid by all citizens who are working and make more than minimum wage. Recent Reforms In 2000, an effort was made by the UK government to resolve certain inequalities that had developed within the NHS by releasing the "NHS Plan of 2000." This plan greatly increased spending on employee pay, infrastructure, and access to services. Despite almost doubling spending in a ten year period, Get more content on HelpWriting.net

I plan to pursue a career in aerospace engineering, and developing that career through one of the academies will help me to achieve the dreams I had as a child. I have many strengths that will help me stand out in the application process, but at the same time, I have challenges to overcome. However, these obstacles will not hinder me from from pursuing my passion. I decided early on in High School that my goal was to attend college for a degree in aerospace engineering, moving on to work as an engineer or technician working on and designing aircraft. When I was very young,...show more content... I recently completed my Eagle Scout rank, achieving the highest honor in Boy Scouts, and I am also a brotherhood member of scouting's honor society, the Order of the Arrow. I served a six month term as Senior Patrol Leader, the most senior scout leader within my troop, as well as serving as Assistant Senior Patrol Leader for one term. Before that, I did three six month terms as Troop Guide, a position in which I acclimated first year scouts to the troop, teaching them the ways of scouting. My experience in Boy Scouts has presented an abundance of opportunities for me to develop my leadership skills, giving me a competitive advantage over other candidates. Among these strengths, I have some weaknesses and challenges I will need to overcome. Foremost among these is the physical side of the Service Academy lifestyle. I lack upper body strength, and I seldom hold myself to any rigid or intense training regimen. Because of this, I will have to overcome the physical barriers presented by the candidate fitness assessment and daily physical training at an Academy. To prepare myself for this, I have begun working out almost daily at home, focusing on my own personal weaknesses and striving to overcome the challenges they Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 17. Essay On NHS Application Originally, I joined NHS out of curiosity. I had an acquaintance in the club who suggested I apply–however I was perplexed by the two–essay application. I wanted to know if NHS was selective because it was really great to be a member, or because it was great to say I was one. I also, quite frankly, wondered if I would be accepted. However, since then I've realized NHS expects commitment from its members for the sake of commitment– rather than for the sake of membership. NHS has high expectations of its members, so that they can have high expectations for themselves. For me, the requirements for NHS both detracted from, and added to, the club. For instance, NHS requires more hours per member than most other service clubs on campus. This meant I had to commit to NHS over other organizations; however giving more time to NHS also helped me place more value in my membership. Similarly, the NHS application both discouraged, and sparked my interest in joining. I find personally reflective writing–like that requested in the NHS application– difficult, so for me the application required dedication to the club without the promise of return. While this was manageable for me as a sophomore, if I had been...show more content... Since I haven't been to many social events, I can't really say if NHS would benefit from hosting more of them. However, I remember being slightly intimidated by the socials that were held because I didn't know many other NHS members well. I found it easier to meet other members through volunteering because volunteering gave me an excuse to interact–I didn't feel pressure to get to know people like I might have at a social. If NHS was to have more socials next year, it would be nice if they were directed around something other than just socializing– bowling, laser tag, a dinner–something that could bring people together but still provide a crutch to interact Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 18. Nhs Application Essay Examples What makes you passionate about this role? Personally, I feel like possessing a passion for this role means possessing a passion for leadership, for being a voice, for making a difference, for representing others and for creating a better community in which everyone has a say and in which everyone is comfortable. Those are things I'm passionate about. I want to have the ability to make a change and to make others feel like their opinions and ideas really do matter. I enjoy representing people and I want people to know that they can come and talk to me, that I can get their suggestions across to others.

It's something I know that if given the opportunity I can excel...show more content... Commitment, organisation and professionalism are three of the qualities that I possess which make me very suitable for this role. My slight obsessiveness with planning and organisation is definitely something that most people don't have but it's also a quality that makes sure I get everything that I need to do, done. You will rarely find that I haven't done my work or fulfilled my responsibilities. I also like to be thorough and make sure that I've achieved as much as I can. For example, I actually read through the whole 'How to write an Application' document that was attached to the email sent to us. This was a way for me to ensure that I've done everything that I could do to make sure I met the application criteria. The other thing I believe makes me stand out from other applicants is the amount of experience I've had with positions that require some similar qualities as this role does like house captain, student ambassador, src representative and assembly team member.

  • 19. Nhs Application Letter Sample RE: Messenger, Ref: #47111 Like every other first year student, I too hope to find myself working within BC's healthcare system in the future. Through BCCSS I yearn to gain insight about the inner workings of the healthcare system, and seek a fuller understanding of how BCCSS supports BC's health authorities. I believe that I can provide BCCSS with an ideal Messenger through a mixture of prior experiences and an willingness to learn. As noted in my resume I am highly skilled in transporting goods from one place to another, as being an assistant coach required me to transport equipment to and from games and practices in a punctual fashion. On top of that, I am familiar with both the BC Cancer Agency's Vancouver campus as well as the Vancouver General Hospital which will allow me to perform deliveries with ease....show more content... Recently, I acted as the bridge for communication between players and coaching staff; I updated and reminded players of dates and other important notices, taught and explained drills, and kept the coaching staff up to date in regards to the team.

Lastly, I am an avid soccer player and fairly fit. I am able to stand for long periods of time, as well as push pull or lift whatever needed during the shift. In closing, I am thrilled at the possibility to be involved with BCCSS and would love the opportunity to meet with you and discuss the position. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Jennifer Get more content on HelpWriting.net

The 6 C's include care, compassion, competence, commitment, courage and communication. All six of the 6C'S are all fundamental values when it comes to healthcare, however out of these six, the three that I have chosen to write about are communication, compassion and courage. I have chosen these three as I believe that they are the most imperative when it comes to delivering high–quality care for the patients or service users. Communication Communication is defined as 'a transactional process involving participants who occupy different but overlapping environments and create relationships through the exchange of messages, many of which are affected by external, psychological and physiological noise' (Adler, R and Proctor, R. 2010). Communication doesn't just mean verbal communication, as non–verbal communication is just as, if not, more important as verbal communication.
