Live from the National Improvement Conference
Welcome to the next episode of our Leading Improvement in Health and Care podcast. In this episode, we're sharing highlights from the NHS Impact’s National Improvement Conference – an event which focused on how improvement can be led with purpose and embedded across health and care systems.
We learn together about what it takes to move beyond improving individual services and organisations to drive change across whole systems, and in particular, the importance of leadership and how leaders can model the behaviours that enable all staff to improve the care they deliver.
You will hear from several of the speakers:
- Adam Sewell-Jones, chief executive officer, East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust
- Nicola Burgess, Professor of Operations Management, University of York
- Andy Hardy, Chief Executive, University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire NHS Trust
And for the last session of the day, Penny Pereira, our podcast host, hosted a panel discussion exploring how improvement can move beyond individual projects and begin to reshape whole pathways of care with staff and populations. Joining her was:
- Caroline Clarke, NHS London Regional Director
- David Fillingham, a Chair in the NHS and Chair of the National Improvement Board
- Rich Amos, Patient Partner with NHS England
You can find a link to further resources from the conference in the show notes below.
Hosted by Penny Pereira, managing director of Q, each episode aims to spotlight where improvement is working well, as well as the challenges it faces.
