Not since the National Health Service was formed in 1948, has there been such a pressing need for wide scale innovation.
Today the NHS faces a dual challenge: delivering on the need for cost efficiency and the desire for clinical excellence.
In Yorkshire and the Humber, clinicians have been driving this change, informing decisions and improving care. It is our hope that the learnings in the case studies and practical experiences clips below can be used to effect real and positive change throughout the NHS.
