Core Skills in Patient Experience Excellence

Lead the creation of a truly customer-centric culture of excellence

Positive patient experience is a core component of Clinical Business Excellence, ignored at considerable peril. With the government committed to a choice agenda, money following the patient through payment by results, PCTs targeted to increase provider numbers and the Conservatives intent on extending this further, it is essential that all services get their house in order in this vital area. This course, designed for those taking the lead, comprehensively covers developing a patient experience excellence strategy and implementing it throughout a team, department or even a whole Trust.

Core Skills in Strategic Service Excellence for Clinical & Non-Clinical Leaders

Insights - Understanding the Evolving Healthcare Landscape

Providing insight into the evolving healthcare landscape that every doctor should know

The healthcare landscape is evolving at a pace that few can keep up with, or even appreciate. Changes to provider types, the locus of control, service reforms, competition and more present a confusing picture to even the most up-to-date clinician, let alone the majority running frenetically just to cope with the day-to-day clinical load. However, the raft of changes creeping (marauding) in represent both tremendous risks and opportunities for the frontline teams taking the trouble to understand their current and evolving environment. This one day programme strips the rhetoric away from the harsh reality of modern healthcare and provides an insight into the drivers of change, likely political manoeuvres and what this really means for secondary/tertiary Trusts and the clinical teams within. Trust us - you need to know this!

This programme has been brought by demand from many recent attendees, insistent that this insight is shared more widely because of its implications. Medicology have been fortunate enough to work near the heart of current reforms, ensuring our insight is current and far from superficial.


Insights - Understanding the Evolving Healthcare Landscape (Doctors in Training)

Information every doctor in training should know in order to thrive in the new system

Our healthcare landscape is changing at a pace few can keep up. The evolving system is thick with opportunities, threats, risks and challenges to doctors and services alike. Consequently, it is vital that all doctors are fully aware of the environment in which they operate and what it takes to survive, thrive and drive service & personal success. This hard hitting programme is designed to ensure doctors in training understand the emerging system, their evolving role and the consequences of being slow to adapt in an increasingly competitive, results driven NHS.


Insights - Understanding the Evolving Healthcare Landscape (Non-Executive Directors)

Vital insight that every Non-Executive Director should know to help steer services effectively

The evolving healthcare landscape is demanding, competitive, increasingly financially challenged (read famine...) and very unforgiving to the ill-prepared organisation or service. Services survive and thrive by being effective across what we call the 6 Core Components of Clinical Business Excellence, requiring a proactive, collaborative and well-founded approach to healthcare based on genuine knowledge and insight. The role of the Non-Executive is to ensure that their organisations do the right things. That can only be done with the right bedrock of understanding including insight into risk, threat, opportunity, competition and more. That's what this programme delivers - insightful!


Insights - Understanding the Evolving Healthcare Landscape (Nursing)

Information every nurse should know to help services survive and thrive
