NHS Scientific Superpower A small but hugely significant section in Darzi review, with some key nuggets to focus on to realise significant impact: Reflects importance of high quality research (personal view, but much great work/opportunities missed and not reflected in figures as non-HRA /CPMS registred) Reflects the 'worrying trend of declining numbers of clinical academics practising in NHS' & their 'essential resource in bridging the gap between research and clinical practice' 'NHS, partnerships with the life science sector for research or treatment too often fall into the category of ‘important but not urgent’. 'R&I has simply not been a high enough priority'... 'can make the NHS more sustainable' https://lnkd.in/ewG2wD_t

A worthwhile webinar #NHS #election

Sharing my views on key Plenary Session featuring Rt. Hon. Wes Streeting MP speech RCGP Annual Conference and Exhibition #rcgpac Firstly proud to see Sheffield GP and friend Andy Hilton, sharing the stage, and one of the 4 GPs selected to illustrate innovative and embitious work already happening in primary care. They illustrated how much GPs care about the responsibilities they have, and above all want to create health creating opportunities for all. But to focus on Wes. So often you listen to politicians and they say nothing really. They professionally navigate tricky issues, giving answers they think most popular with their audience. At least that's what we've been used to lately. It was refreshing to feel like we were listening to someone who is prepared to acknowledge and take on the tough issues ahead of us in the NHS. Key take homes for me, he recognises: -Primary Care offers the best value in the NHS, and its savvy to protect teams and invest here. - Benefits of working in communities (neighbourhoods) and of horizontal integration between specialists and generalist teams, with equal parity. -Needing transparent and inclusive decision making about trade offs between investing in health services, and tackling wider determinants of health. -He is committed to listening, and having robust debate.....his previous swipe at partnership model was a deliberate provocation to stimulate engagement around contentious issues. I felt optimistic. He spoke like he deeply understands the nuances of our health challenges. We were reminded he spent much of his pre MP life in leadership roles in voluntary sector. Only one backward reference to Tory legacy, much more forward looking to how we collaborate as teams to properly build for the longterm. This feels to me like brave leadership, with moral intent.
