A BIG win for patient safety!🙌

Our DOAC medicine review identified 1224 patients that needed intervention. The overall findings from this initiative are a great example of how secondary and primary care work well together to deliver brilliant results.

A 🧵 on the @Policy_Projects virtual roundtable. (1/4)

I thoroughly enjoyed the roundtable last Thursday, it was an interesting and thought-provoking discussion. Big thanks to our chair @M_YousafAhmad for guiding us through a packed agenda and meaty topics in just 90 minutes.

Really gutted I couldn't attend the breakfast yesterday, but I completely agree - we should leverage our influence to make a difference! #healthinequalities

[Duncan Richardson @MedsOpDuncan]

A fantastic talk with @BolaOwolabi8 on health inequalities yesterday - time to move beyond data & talk action.

It's about differentiating "healthcare" inequalities vs. "health" inequalities. Everyone has a role in their community - don't wait for the system, be proactive!

[Selma Abed @SelmaAbed5]

A fantastic episode, well worth the listen!

It's well known that primary care prescribing plays a significant part in the NHS overspend.

This is why ICBs are using Active Implementation™️ to tackle overspending with speed to deliver long-lasting results that don't disrupt primary care workforce: https://t.co/WL7HH9L8mx

[Selma Abed @SelmaAbed5]

Looking forward to seeing NHSE's new campaign around how different primary care roles can support NHS patients.

A new campaign has been launched to help alleviate pressures on the NHS. The campaign informs people on how to access the most appropriate care for their physical or mental health needs.

ICBs have many competing priorities alongside #NHS England's guidance, so it's important to create collaborative relationships with partners like
@SpiritMedsOp.

Their end goal is to support and empower NHS patients and that's exactly what they do!

What if we said, there's a way to make significant cost savings without compromising on resource?
