I've been posting advice to patients advising them to personally follow up on referrals. Good advice I believe, which could save lives. I'm interested in people's views on this. This is the message I'm sharing: **Important message for patients relating to clinical referrals in England** We need a specific effort to ensure ALL referrals are followed up. Some are getting 'lost'. I urge all patients to check your referral has been received, ensure your GP and the clinical team you have been referred to have the referral. Make sure you have a copy yourself too. Things are difficult and we accept there are waits. Having information on the progress of your referral, and an assurance that is is being clinically prioritised is vital. If patients are fully informed and assured of the progress of their referrals in real-time it could save time and effort in fielding enquiries and prevent them going missing or 'falling into a black hole', which is a reality for some people. It would also prevent clinical priorities being missed. Maybe this is happening, and patients are being kept fully informed in real-time of the progress of their referrals. It would be good to hear examples of best practice.- Posted

Content ArticleScrutiny of NHS chief executive officers (CEOs) has tended to focus on the generally short tenure of their position. The implications of high turnover have been assessed but there has been limited research looking at CEOs who remain in post for long periods, whether in the same organisations or in multiple ones. This study by researchers from the University of Manchester draws on interview data collected in 2019 with 10 long serving CEOs in the English NHS, with an average tenure of 17 years.

Content ArticleThe Jeddah Declaration on Patient Safety is founded on the principles that guided the 4th Global Ministerial Patient Safety Summit 2019, Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is a call for action on many fronts, and for many actors, at all levels of healthcare provision and delivery – from frontline, to organisational and policy arenas. The Declaration is founded on the underlying spirit that it is imperative to reflect on the effectiveness of current practices in light of the now mature patient safety evidence base of 20 years and to collectively move forward with a vision to sustainable and scalable implementation of patient safety solutions known to improve care delivery systems, patient outcomes and safety culture. The Declaration signals a strong collective and global commitment to shape truly safer systems for generations to come.

Content ArticleThe objective of this piece of work was to try and create a different way of navigating through the various themes in mental health. There are a huge range of posts on mental health and related areas on the hub. Seemingly endless information, and so little time to absorb it. I know from experience, and from the learning I have undertaken and delivered on information mastery, that there is so much material available it is difficult to find the time to discover, and then read fully, what is most relevant to the work in hand. As a result I have created a diagram (below - click on it to enlarge it) and an interactive pdf (attached), which has a number of topics and subtopics links to existing hub content to help people to do exactly that. In doing this, the focus has been on including patients/users of services, avoiding medical jargon, taking a holistic view. I am really interested in everyone’s views on this. Is this a useful approach and a helpful model? Will it help you post and find what matters to you? I would love to gather people's ideas and potentially improve the model further.
