Heading #Home4Noon on #SolvingTogether!

The platform will be closing to new ideas on 7th October (this Friday!), don’t miss this opportunity to share your ideas on the challenge question: What should always happen to ensure people go home from hospital earlier in the day and be heading #Home4Noon?

Share your ideas, thoughts and comments ideas on the three challenge areas:

💡People

💡Teams

💡Organisations, including systems

Let’s get #SolvingTogether and Improving Discharge! Click here to access the platform.

Last week was a great for the #SolvingTogether community. The team had a great session with some friends of NHS Horizons from Lived Experience backgrounds. We really appreciated discussing ideas that the group had on how we can get people Heading #Home4Noon.

On Tuesday last week, @KerryEMcGinty, @LeighAKendall and @ElaineKing91 hosted a brilliant Twitter space session about the community management of the Heading #Home4Noon challenges on #SolvingTogether. During the session we heard some of their favourite ideas, as well as some useful information about the challenges. If you’d like to catch up on what took place, you can listen again by clicking on the Tweet below.

On Wednesday the team helped facilitate The 100 day challenge embracing risk enabling patient choice meeting. It was great to hear form a range of speakers! Thank you @BevMatthewsRN for sharing this great nugget from @AimeeRobsom about the importance of conversations with those receiving care reduces harm. If you have any ideas similar to this, do share them on the #SolvingTogther Heading #Home4Noon challenges by clicking here.
