“The narrative for coordinated care – use or ornament?”
To assist health and social care organisations in their drive to integrate care, national system leaders are establishing a coordinated framework – at the centre of which is a common 'narrative' to describe what integration means from the service user perspective. National Voices has been closely involved in producing it, but today will reflect on what kinds of challenges are involved in using the narrative to 'make the patient perspective the organising principle of care'.

“Multi-skilling: a paradigm of success for those entering the Cardiac Cath Lab pathway”
Understanding what is required to deliver a system of work that contributes to a better patient pathway and clinical outcome is essential for us in the NHS. One area of growth is the provision of evidence-based care for those with coronary artery disease. Initially designed to fill vacancies identified by capacity and the shortfall of appropriately qualified staff working in this area, multi-skilling through postgraduate study has assisted in ensuring expedient and successful clinical care when a plan has been designed and managed correctly within individual trust settings. By multi-skilling, staff have a greater, if not more holistic understanding of the patient and their situation, which is required to ensure expedient and effective treatment, what other team members dealing with this patient require, and this approach benefits in many ways.
