The Patient Flow Conference North 2023
The Patient Flow Conference North 2023
The Convenzis Patient Flow Conference series has been a highly valued platform for NHS Urgent care leaders, to meet with peers, share practical insights and listen to live policy updates throughout the Covid-19 outbreak. Below you can find details of our next event in the series, we hope to see you there.
Urgent and Emergency Care (UEC) services perform a critical role in keeping the population healthy. The NHS responds to more than 110 million urgent calls or visits every year, therefore, it is essential that the system works effectively.
The Transformation of urgent and emergency care: models of care and measurement paper was published in late 2020 and focused on 6 core areas of improvement including Changing behaviours and the role of NHS 111, optimising ambulance performance and reducing wider service pressures, improving access, capacity and capability of urgent care centres and measuring performance.
Following this, recommendations from a Clinically led Review of NHS Access Standards for urgent and emergency care were published, alongside the strategy for transforming urgent and emergency care provision. The review focused on the urgent and emergency care standards. Our upcoming conference aims to discuss the urgent care indicators and how to measure performance in a transformed system.
AstraZeneca has provided a sponsorship grant towards this independent Programme. AstraZeneca has had no editorial input into or control over the agenda, content development or choice of speakers, except for the AstraZeneca sponsored symposia presentations.

Balancing Risk and Empowering Patients in Patient Flow
Patient flow is essentially risk management and this has to be balanced rather than following rigid rules in the current climate. Good leadership, escalation and planning is essential. Balancing risk is not routinely taught and not how the traditional NHS processes works. This presentation focusses on balancing risks and how to adapt processes to do the best for patients and staff in challenging times.

Your Patient Flow – Faster: Leveraging Digital Tools to Recover Productivity and Improve Whole System Flow
The NHS 2023/24 priorities set out the most critical actions Integrated Care Systems (ICS) can take to support health and care delivery this year. Recovering productivity and enhancing whole system flow is no longer an option—it's crucial. In this highly anticipated presentation, attendees will gain an overview of the patient flow deliverables, acquire a roadmap for achieving whole system flow, and will learn precisely how Blackpool Teaching Hospitals reduced length of stay by 4+ days, increased utilisation of all downstream services, and sped up response times by over 90% using a hospital-wide single-point of discharge (SPOD).
