THE DAY OVERALL

88% of delegates felt the overall event was good or excellent (scores 4 and 5 out of 5).

Highlights included:

  • Beverley Alimo-Metcalf and her views on leadership
  • The sessions around context and the future
  • Networking with colleagues across disciplines and boundaries
  • Sharing learning

79% of delegates said they would do something differently in their work as a result of attending the event.

What they would do differently included:

  • Implementing some of the specific interventions discussed in the theme workshop sessions
  • Promoting and supporting the HIEC work back within their own organisations
  • Think differently about leadership and their own role in this within their own organisation, some people specifically referenced their role in leading and influencing the education and innovation agenda regionally.

78% of delegates felt that the event either fully or mostly (4 out of 5 score) met their expectations.  No delegates felt that the event did not meet their expectations at all (score 1 or 2 out of 5).

The key reasons for attending included:

  • Networking with colleagues across the patch
  • Sharing learning between organisations and disciplines
  • Broadening knowledge of HIEC
  • Gaining knowledge around the current and future arrangements for education and innovation

YOUR THOUGHTS ON INNOVATION

These are the results from the morning session of the event.  We ran the same question at the end of the event with a slightly different audience but the trends in the results remained steady.

83% of attendees were very positive or positive about achieving adoption and spread of innovation in their organisations.

100% of NHS Senior leaders and clinicians and the voluntary sector were positive or very positive. NHS Managers, and colleagues from universities, industry and local government voted more towards a little positive and positive on the scale.

63% of attendees were very positive or positive about achieving the adoption and spread of innovation across Yorkshire and Humber.

33% of attendees were a little positive about achieving the adoption and spread of innovation across Yorkshire and Humber.

In this instance the majority of colleagues from all roles and sectors voted on the mid end of the scale.

YOUR PRIORITIES

EMBEDDING THE HIEC LEGACY

Following the presentations from Dawn Lawson, HIEC Director on the HIEC approach and Chris Butler and Christine Outram around the context and future innovation and education arrangements we asked the audience:

What aspects of the HIEC approach should be embedded in the new innovation and education arrangements?

Each of the four aspects of the approach were summarised as headings in the questions with more detail  in the HIEC approach briefing .

The question was not about the HIEC as a mechanism/vehicle but rather about the work we have done which can either be:

  • Embedded as it is in new systems
  • Strengthened/built on over the coming year to be embedded in the new structures/systems
  • Not taken forward into the new systems

What we are trying to get to is what shouldn’t be lost and what can be built on to deliver Value For Money?

The results were not significant in terms of variance between the different roles or sectors represented on the day.   The overall feedback across all sectors and roles was as follows:

Collaboration, participation, networks and partnerships

Embed                                                 46%

Strengthen                                          52%

Don’t take forward                            2%

Evidence based innovations

Embed                                                  43%

Strengthen                                           54%

Don’t take forward                             3%

 

Education at the heart of what we do

 Embed                                                  46%

Strengthen                                           49%

Don’t take forward                              5%

An enabling approach – systematic/managed

 Embed                                                  44%

Strengthen                                           48%

Don’t take forward                              8%

We are pleased to see that the delegates attending the event would generally support the different aspects of the HIEC approach to be strengthened over the coming year and embedded into the new  innovation and education arrangements, where possible.  This is something we will be discussing with the HIEC Board in more detail in March with ideas for how we can build on the ways we are already doing this.

 PRIORITY THEMES

 Following general agreement that the HIEC approach is something we could build on and take forward we asked delegates to spend half an hour on the day thinking about If we were to apply the HIEC approach to another theme which theme would have the potential for the biggest impact in their organisation over the next 5 years?

 A full list of the feedback is available and we have grouped the themes/priorities identified by delegates into key headings as follows:

  •  Educating, engaging and empowering patients, parents and other service users
  • Dementia
  • Care of the elderly and end of life care
  • Mental and Physical health agenda
  • Public Health
  • Whole systems, integrated approach – across sectors and disciplines
  • Workforce, education and training
  • Leadership/communication and resources
  • Falls
  • Pressure sores
  • Care closer to home
  • Maternal and Infant Health and Care

The majority of discussions not only focussed on the possible themes/priorities but delegates also stressed that the whole systems, integrated approach – across sectors and disciplines should be applied to these priorities.

We will feed this into the emerging arrangements and consider with our board how this may impact future innovation work for the HIEC or any other innovation body.
