Workshop: How the NHS made day surgery the norm

What can we learn from how the NHS made day surgery the norm?

In this digital workshop we explored how the NHS made it possible for 9 in 10 operations to be done within a day, avoiding the need for people to stay overnight, and what we can learn from its approach for delivering lasting change today.

Speakers:

  • Tim Briggs, Chair, Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) and National Director of Clinical Improvement, NHS England & NHS Improvement
  • Kieran Walshe, Chair, Health Services Research UK & Professor of Health Policy and Management, University of Manchester
  • Jo Scott, Q Insight Manager, Health Foundation
  • Penny Pereira, Deputy Director of Improvement, Health Foundation & Programme Director, Q Initiative
