It’s Monday! Think of all we can change in our organisations & systems without waiting for “guidance”
- seek out the rebel alliance
- give our teams permission to innovate
- say you have their back
- listen to communities; what do they think?
- stop doing things that don’t work
Yes 🙌 a radical redesign of the NHS, a new social contract with citizens is definitely needed but what stops us doing it now? Are we waiting for guidance from NHSE? Therein lies the problem. Let’s look outwards to communities not upward for rules. ICSs could do this on Monday!
"Given the public support for the principles of the NHS, perhaps more radical ideas for improving the NHS can come from outside."
We should embrace the power of citizens and society to restore public confidence in the #NHS, @jessiecunnett@Richard56bmj.com/content/385/bmj.q107…
"Health inequalities are the systematic, unfair and avoidable differences in health across the population, caused by the conditions in which we are born, live and work."

Really great blog by Beth Kirby telling us about the great work she and the team are doing around inclusion health. Also great to hear from Ali Bishop about the EDI plans for WYICB. Worth a quick read.
