Innovation

Innovation doesn't happen in a vacuum. Great ideas can (& do) come from all corners of the NHS & you are probably already involved! 

What is innovation & what does it look like?

Innovation is about finding new, better or more effective ways of solving problems.

 

In health & social care this usually relates to:

  • an identified need

  • a process

  • a new pathway

  • a new medical technology or device   

Some examples of innovation are:

  • Platforms & Apps

  • Clinical guidelines & checklists

  • Pathway redesign

  • Training material

  • Pharmaceutical

  • Genome sequencing

  • Wearable sensors

  • Portable technology

  • Surgical devices
