Lessons learned from changing the consultant workforce model in acute medicine.NHS England
Dr Mark Roland, Associate Medical Director from Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust describes how the hospital changed their general medical consultant workforce model to improve care and flow. Despite challenges, this has improved care, flow, support for junior teams and staff satisfaction.
Digital healthcare will shape future care delivery by allowing care to occur outside hospitals through technologies that support remote care, self-management, and virtual interactions. This will lead to more integrated community and home-based care for long-term conditions. Hospitals will focus on more specialized services as routine care shifts elsewhere. Digital tools will empower patients through access to data and remote monitoring, while new types of community health hubs and an expanded workforce help support decentralized care models. However, ensuring equity, safety, and user acceptability of these new approaches will be important to avoid potential drawbacks.

This document discusses pilots of telemedicine projects in the Aquitaine region of France and the challenges of scaling them up regionally. It describes three pilot projects in nursing home teleconsultation, telestroke treatment, and a secure messaging platform for healthcare professionals. Barriers to wider adoption include economic issues, regulatory frameworks, institutional silos, and resistance to change. However, the region is taking a multi-pronged approach of promoting telemedicine in education, industry, practitioner communities, and through political support to help drive systemic organizational change and regional coordination of projects.

The document discusses an NHS service that developed an online and mobile app solution to collect patient feedback and experience data through surveys. This solution aimed to increase response rates and accessibility by allowing flexible submission methods. It has led to a 300% increase in responses for one mental health team and gives ward managers access to their own feedback data to inform improvement plans. Some challenges included cost of hardware and resistance to technology-based methods. The service is now promoting the solution to other healthcare settings.

This document discusses ways to improve clinical research in Ireland using University Hospital Limerick and the University of Limerick as a case study. It argues that linking hospitals to universities through a medical school and research programs benefits patients, staff, the university and local industry. Specifically, it advocates establishing a Health Research Institute that brings together researchers from various departments at the University of Limerick and University Hospital Limerick. This would help build critical research capacity, strengthen governance and infrastructure for clinical research, and foster collaboration across specialties. The benefits would include improving patient care, attracting and retaining talented staff, generating additional revenue, and boosting the national and international reputation of both institutions.

A verse by verse commentary on DEUTERONOMY 23 dealing with people excluded from the assembly, and keeping the environment clean from human waste. it also deals with various laws.
A verse by verse commentary on DEUTERONOMY 12 dealing with God's demand that they destroy all the idols and objects of worship in the land they are entering. They are to worship only in the special place He will appoint, and their sacrifices are also to be there and they are never to eat the blood but pour it on the ground like water.
This document provides commentary on Ezekiel 23, which uses the metaphor of two adulterous sisters, Oholah and Oholibah, to represent Israel and Judah. It describes how both engaged in idolatry and turned to other nations rather than God for protection. As a result, Israel was conquered by Assyria and the northern kingdom was destroyed as a warning to others.

This is our Business Plan for the next year; 2017-18.
In health, as in other sectors, innovation and adoption at scale is increasingly driven by interdisciplinary research, synergies between industries, and a step-change in end-user (citizen, consumer, patient) engagement in the process. Seeing the wood from the trees, making connections, spotting opportunities, and understanding how to get traction requires a breadth of perspective and strong roots into, and across, that landscape.
Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs) connect horizontally across research, industries, commissioners, providers and users; and network vertically between policy formulation, system design, operational coal-face and end-user experience. That role takes us across all parts of the NHS, into industry, local government and other public agencies, into universities, charities, start-ups, and into funders. And up and down the system; from the role of the GP receptionist in improvement and innovation; to dialogue with policy makers and regulators about refining system design to support adoption and spread of innovation.
Networks which are open to, and embrace, the diverse perspectives of these stakeholders will, in turn, help the systems and members which they support be open to the adoption and spread of innovation.
That is what we, Wessex AHSN, aspire to. We hope you find this spirit reflected in our business plan.

This document outlines strategies for building a person-centered health system in New Zealand, including:
1) Shifting from a provider-centric to person-centric model organized around individual needs.
2) Developing interoperable health IT systems to improve information sharing across settings and support personalized care.
3) Addressing challenges like fragmented information and a lack of consistency through initiatives like a national health information architecture and infrastructure.
This document summarizes an article aimed at helping healthcare provider boards improve their understanding and oversight of patient experience. It provides guidance on measuring patient experience, including highlighting areas that are important to patients but have seen little progress. The summary emphasizes that focusing on patient experience is critical for an organization's reputation and quality of care, as well as a board's statutory duty. It signposts board members to sections of the report that provide practical recommendations on discussing patient experience intelligence and insights from other healthcare leaders.

1. The study tested whether fish exported from no-take marine protected areas (MPAs) affected catchability in surrounding fisheries. MPAs are important conservation tools that can positively impact nearby habitats and fish populations through spillover effects.
2. Video recordings analyzed the behavior of three commonly caught recreational species - Diplodus annularis, Coris julis, and Serranus scriba - inside and outside an MPA to measure changes in wariness.
3. The findings suggest recreational angling reduced the total population of S. scriba over time by increasing their wariness through catching and releasing. This evolutionary response decreased their adult body size.
This document provides an overview of the need for a national eHealth strategy in Australia. It notes that the current healthcare system is fragmented and unable to cope with future challenges. A national eHealth system could help create a more integrated system by allowing electronic sharing of health information between clinicians and patients. However, the system requires significant investment in technologies and changes to privacy laws and standards. The document calls for a long-term, coordinated national approach to implement eHealth over 10 years.

This document discusses how sharing economy tools like social media and ICT can improve healthcare outcomes and reduce costs. It argues that connecting healthcare professionals through these tools allows for improved knowledge sharing, more rapid dissemination of best practices, and reduced errors and treatment times. The document reports that studies have found 30-40% reductions in healthcare costs when clinical pharmacists are integrated into care teams using sharing economy instruments like social media. It calls for incorporating sharing economy principles and management training into clinical pharmacist education to further optimize healthcare quality and costs.
This document summarizes the key findings of a study on the perceived interest in an e-marketplace for healthcare and social care services in Guimarães, Portugal. The study found that:
1) Nearly 50% of respondents felt an e-marketplace for these services would be "very important".
2) Over 50% expected to use the services "sometimes" but few expected daily or weekly use, likely due to barriers like computer/internet access.
3) The most important services identified were information about healthcare, 24/7 home monitoring, and personal hygiene services.

Realising the Value Stakeholder Event -Workshop: How does the system support Nesta
Workshop D - How does the system support communities/individuals and how could it do it better?
The levers and drivers that national bodies put in place and how these are used locally have a significant impact on working in partnership with communities and patients. These levers and drivers include regulation, targets, outcomes measures, financial flows, annual contracting cycles, clinical standards, workforce training and revalidation etc.
This workshop will draw upon your experience and evidence to address two questions:
How these levers and drivers get in the way of working in partnership with patients and communities?
What is the best blend of approaches to support commissioners and providers locally to harness the energy of patients and communities
Nhs innovation accelerator understanding how and why the nhs adopts innovationHugh Risebrow
Thanks Nael Clarke for highlighting Wessex AHSN report on adoption of innovation in the NHS. Innovation is difficult in any organisation, but why is it so much harder in the NHS than in say Apple, Amazon or most private businesses: My views:
1. Organisational success. In private b2c companies, success results from attracting and retaining customers through delivering innovative services which meet their needs better than competition. In the NHS, success is much more about achieving arbitrary political targets, and patients have limited choice.
2. Organisational incentives. Many innovative companies set divisional objectives around the proportion of income from new products.
3. Individual and team incentives. In successful b2c businesses, financial and career recognition/ promotion rewards are often linked to innovation. There is recognition that innovation may need a few reiterations to succeed. In the NHS, few get fired for preserving the status quo, but many lose out of they innovate and it fails first time round, and there are no individual or team incentives.
Many in the NHS seek to innovate in order to deliver better care at a lower cost. They are often faced with organisational resistance or at least inertia, and excessive bureaucracy.
Lesson 101 in management s that you get the behaviours that you incentivise. (How) should the NHS change the incentives? Is there scope for more NHS owned 'spin-outs' which allow private sector type financial incentives for staff, and greater freedom from NHS bureaucracy and governance?

1) The document discusses including people with disabilities across all phases of disaster management based on international frameworks and guidelines.
2) It outlines how rehabilitation professionals can involve people with disabilities in preparedness, response, and recovery efforts through inclusive approaches.
3) Examples include pre-identifying people with disabilities, ensuring accessible warning and evacuation systems, and applying lessons learned to build back more inclusive health facilities and programs.
Eva Nachtschatt presented research from a 2014-2016 project that observed the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD) in legislative processes in Austria, Germany, New Zealand, and Australia. The research examined legislative reforms regarding guardianship law in Austria and participation law in Germany. It also analyzed representation approaches in New Zealand and the work of the Cross-Disability Alliance in Australia. The study found a lack of direct application of UNCRPD, different levels of representation across disability types, and a lack of awareness among politicians and the public about participation and disability rights.

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real lifeartemacademy2
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...Suzanne Lagerweij
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

RIWC_PARA_A171 modern prosthetics – an interdisciplinary approach fortis net creating a hub of expertise in research and development
1. 1
Finally, on behalf of the Institute for Life Sciences at the University of Southampton, I
would like to tell you about how we are using this interdisciplinary model to
coordinate our musculoskeletal research activities across the University.
FortisNet is a unique network connecting clinicians, researchers and enterprise to
end-users, to improve musculoskeletal health, and this talk will cover how we
developed the model, and an example of some of the prosthetic and orthotic work
we have underway.
2. We are faced with a major challenge in musculoskeletal disease.
This is a burden on society, the economy, and individuals of all ages, around the
world. Conditions including osteoarthritis, osteoporosis and diabetes are common,
and growing problems for an aging population. For example:…
The University of Southampton and nearby Hospital Trust have a unique capability in
our strong, and extremely broad background in musculoskeletal health research.
Our target was to coordinate around 50 researchers and clinicians at the University
and Hospital, along with many more in the local area.
2
3. At the Institute for Life Sciences, University of Southampton, our response to these
challenges is to launch FortisNet: an interdisciplinary and vocational network in
regenerative medicine, orthopaedics, prosthetics and assistive technologies.
First, we mapped our musculoskeletal health expertise at the University.
We have researchers across Engineering, Health Sciences, Medicine and Electronics
and Computer Science working in areas with direct or indirect benefit to
musculoskeletal disease.
We grouped the research activities into those representing ‘Components’, at the most
fundamental science level; ‘Limbs’, at the technological level; and ‘Individual’, at the
Human-Device interactions level.
Key activities include…
3
4. Next, we conducted a mapping exercise, to understand the musculoskeletal
landscape in the wider world, within one hour of Southampton.
We found the Central South of England to have a thriving set of activities. This
includes over 30 companies, five larger governmental research organisations, and a
range of bodies providing enterprise support and investment, and incubation for
startup businesses.
4
5. To try to harness this local network, we designed FortisNet. This is an ecosystem with
which we intend to coordinate user-needs-driven musculoskeletal health product
development. We wanted to create a virtuous circle of feedback, to link users,
clinicians, academics and industry:
1) We talk to service users and clinicians to understand their needs.
2) We link these needs to the expertise at the University, Hospital and in local
industry.
3) Finally, we exploit a broad range of funders and enabling organisations to ensure
translation of the results to clinicians and service users. These contacts include
policymakers and professional bodies to make sure that the full potential
socioeconomic benefits are achieved.
All these activities are interconnected, through mechanisms like the patient and
public involvement concept Jo told us about – we keep iterating to ensure that we are
working towards meeting the user need.
5
6. To establish the network, we contacted the local companies, and
surveyed the University’s researchers to understand their local and
international collaborative links, and invited them to a launch event in
January 2016.
This map shows the organisations who have given letters of support,
been listed as project partners, or have indicated they wish to be part
of FortisNet, and the momentum we were able to build within the first
six months.
The centre of gravity might be in Southampton, but we have partners
across Europe and have already reached central and South East Asia,
South America.
6
7. With input from our network, we identified these key workstreams as the core of
what FortisNet will do:
These themes give us the flexibility to address new problems, but retain focus to
ensure that we remain driven by our translational objective, for the benefit of the
service users.
7
8. We were approached by the lower limb prosthetics industry with a project idea I
would like to give as an example. The industry and clinicians had identified the need
for an evidence base around prosthetic limb componentry.
This is needed by all parties involved. As our previous speakers have explained, limb
fitting is a highly skill- and experience-based process, and very subjective. There is
great variation in the users’ requirements and the prosthetic components used, so it
is difficult to untangle the benefits of different technologies, and to take a more
objective approach.
A big-data registry for lower limb prosthetics would:
- Help clinicians to optimise their practice, by quantifying and recording current
treatments, enabling them to monitor their practice and be more informed in
treatment selection for new patients;
- Help industry to iterate design with fewer human trials
- Help healthcare providers to assess the benefits of more advanced prosthetic
components, so that the case can be made for funding more advanced limbs; and
- Help users to monitor their progress through rehabilitation, and engage in new
developments; and
8
9. Our industrial advisors recognised that this needs to be an independent exercise, so
that the results are trusted by healthcare providers, funders and users. “No single
group or research team has all the expertise. The problems users face are so complex
and multifaceted that we really need to pull in all the expertise for the delivery of
new technology.”
This made FortisNet the ideal organisation to address the problem.
8
10. So far we have mapped the problem out, and identified the system requirements,
and how they vary for the different contributors and users. This forms part of a much
more complicated system diagram, but that is the point – an effective solution to this
problem will be complicated, but depends on the buy-in of all participants, and the
clear focus on the user requirements.
We envisage a database with four portals, for the user, the clinician, the industry, and
the researcher.
1) This database is an easy means for the user to provide feedback on their
experience, individually and as user groups, and to view larger population reports
so they can understand their rehabilitation progress, and take ownership of their
prosthetic treatment.
2) The clinician and industry portals are linked. Clinicians would be able to appraise
their practice, and take an evidence-based approach to what they do. The
industry could obtain large cohort, independent performance appraisal of their
products, and help to justify the cost to healthcare providers and funders.
3) Finally, there is a huge research value to such a database, and researchers often
struggle to access such information. This database would also provide a
repository for these research reports, for all users to access.
9
11. 10
This project, and FortisNet as a whole, are both at an early stage of development.
However, it all shows the fundamental importance of combining the involvement of
End Users with Enterprise and Clinicians, to shape the future directions of our
research.
If we keep our activities linked to input from the community, we will be able to
remain focussed and maximise our impact and the return on our funders’ investment.
This quotation, from one of our FortisNet members at the launch event, sums up the
spirit of our approach.
12. And that is where you come in.
We welcome new members. If you are a researcher, clinician, member of the public,
charity, donor, policy maker or work in industry; if you share our collegiate,
interdisciplinary vision and want to help shape the future of musculoskeletal research
we would like to hear from you.
Please come to visit us on Stand 9 to talk to us, and to leave us your details.
Thank you very much indeed for listening, and again to all of our presenters today.
We have half an hour remaining for discussion, and are keen to answer your
questions. To chair the discussion I now hand over to our moderator Alison Raw,
Professional Adviser for Allied Health Professions at UK Department of Health.
