New Daffodil Standards

The Royal College of GPs and Marie Curie partnership are due to launch the Daffodil Standards: the new UK General Practice Standards for End of Life Care and Advanced Serious Illness. This quality improvement programme is a great opportunity to help support General Practice to improve care for patients and their loved ones at the end of life.

During the development process they involved patients and carers, in consultation with RCGP Patient Partnership Groups, Marie Curie Expert Voices and National Association of Patient Participation. They have recently completed 16 feasibility pilots in practices to test the pilots. Here is a flyer and editorial with some information.

​The full documentation for the programme is free and voluntary, however foundation components are due to form part of End of Life Care QOF from April 2019.

H&SH awareness month - Sepsis

2/1/2019

Each month we’re going to focus on a specific area of heath and this month we’re raising awareness of sepsis.

Every 3.5 seconds, someone in the world dies of sepsis. In the UK alone, 52,000 people lose their lives to sepsis every year. This is more than breast, bowel and prostate cancer combined. 

It’s also  a good opportunity to let you know that have we won a small bid to design and test some sepsis training and awareness events.

On behalf of NHS England we’ll be piloting some sepsis training, primarily for GP receptionists
and practice leads. We’ve already had a great response with training sessions already full.

We’re hoping the pilot will be a success as there’s potential to roll this out as a model.

You can download resources to promote sepsis awareness from Public Health England.
