Statement of Purpose July 2020 Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Statement of Purpose July 2020 Service Provider Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Headquarters: Addenbrooke’s and The Rosie Hospitals Hills Road Cambridge CB2 0QQ Introduction - Our Hospitals & Services: Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (CUH) provides accessible, high- quality healthcare for the local people of Cambridge, together with specialist services, dealing with rare or complex conditions for a regional, national and international population. The Trust is recognised as a centre of excellence and innovation with many of the hospital specialists being leaders in their field. CUH also provides satellite and outreach services at other locations to meet the needs of patients, e.g. in other hospitals, GP practices, and in patients’ homes. On occasion we outsource treatment to the independent sector although we retain notes about our patients. Our commitment to our patients and our community is as an open, accountable and responsive organisation that fosters patient and public involvement. The Trust achieved NHS Foundation Trust status in July 2004 and as such has a Council of Governors and a membership of approximately 20,000. This comprises of patients, staff and members of the public who are actively involved with the Trust, ensuring that our services reflect the needs of those using them. Our headquarters is Addenbrooke’s and the Rosie Hospitals in Cambridge. Addenbrooke’s Hospital provides emergency, surgical and medical care for local people and is the Major Trauma Centre (MTC) for the East of England. It is also a regional centre of excellence for specialist services such as transplantation, cancer, neurosciences, paediatrics and genetics. Based on the same site as Addenbrooke’s, the Rosie Hospital is a women's hospital and the regional centre of excellence for maternity care. Our Vision & Future: CUH's vision is to improve people's quality of life through innovative and sustainable healthcare. CUH is well positioned to enable the integration of our three core activities of clinical care, research and teaching through its position as: . A local District General Hospital for the Cambridgeshire community; . A specialist hospital on a supra-regional and national basis; . A teaching hospital for the University of Cambridge; and . A major academic and clinical research centre Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust Statement of Purpose Page 1 of 15 CUH’s mission to provide outstanding care, teaching and research, with a local focus is supported not only through the high calibre of its workforce and continuing service innovation but as a partner organisation in the development of Cambridge’s biomedical campus. Royal Papworth Hospital’s relocation to the Campus in 2019/20 as well as Astra Zeneca’s decision to position their headquarters on the campus presents opportunities for collaboration in continuing healthcare excellence. CUH’s Strategy: In order to achieve our vision, the Board has committed to a refreshed strategy acknowledging our challenges and our championing our strengths. CUH’s strategy aims are: . To become sustainable by 2021 across finance, care quality, teaching and research . To build on its position at the centre of a biomedical hub . To maximise the benefits for patients, staff and the UK economy through four major programmes of work over a 3-5 year time period: 1. Improving patient journeys – strengthening services through productivity improvement and pathway redesign 2. Working with our local communities – implementing the STP to deliver enhanced health and better care closer to home 3. Strengthening the organisation – improving the leadership, governance and functional capability of CUH 4. Contributing regionally, nationally and internationally – making the most of CUH’s opportunities in highly specialised services, teaching and bioscience research All four programmes are focused on improving the quality, safety and experience of care for our patients. The Board believes the programmes are complementary and together will support the delivery of the strategy. Our Values: Our values are 'Together - Safe, Kind and Excellent', and are at the heart of patient care, defining the way we work and behave. Partnership Working: Our commitment to build and maintain strong and collaborative relationships with the research community, NHS and social care organisations supports our aim to ensure patients get the right care in the right place at the right time. We are a key member of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Sustainability and Transformation Partnership.

  • Developing Nurse Medication Safety Training in a Health Partnership In
    Bull et al. Globalization and Health (2017) 13:45 DOI 10.1186/s12992-017-0265-1 RESEARCH Open Access Developing nurse medication safety training in a health partnership in Mozambique using behavioural science Eleanor Rose Bull1*, Corina Mason2, Fonseca Domingos Junior3, Luana Vendramel Santos4, Abigail Scott5, Debo Ademokun4, Zeferina Simião3, Wingi Manzungu Oliver3, Fernando Francisco Joaquim3 and Sarah M. Cavanagh5,6 Abstract Background: Globally, safe and effective medication administration relies on nurses being able to apply strong drug calculation skills in their real-life practice, in the face of stressors and distractions. These may be especially prevalent for nurses in low-income countries such as Mozambique and Continuing Professional Development post-registration may be important. This study aimed to 1) explore the initial impact of an international health partnership’s work to develop a drug calculation workshop for nurses in Beira, Mozambique and 2) reflect upon the role of health psychologists in helping educators apply behavioural science to the training content and evaluation. Methods: In phase one, partners developed a training package, which was delivered to 87 Portuguese-speaking nurses. The partnership’s health psychologists coded the training’s behaviour change content and recommended enhancements to content and delivery. In phase two, the refined training, including an educational game, was delivered to 36 nurses in Mozambique and recoded by the health psychologists. Measures of participant confidence and intentions to make changes to healthcare practice were collected, as well as qualitative data through post-training questions and 12 short follow-up participant interviews. Results: In phase one six BCTs were used during the didactic presentation.
