NHS local discussion: Information Revolution

In the third part of an NHS local discussion held at the new Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham, a panel and invited audience discussed the Information Revolution that is intended to provide patients and healthcare staff with the information, tools and technologies that will help support them in the changing NHS. Health secretary Andrew Lansley's vision is to use an information revolution to provide users of the NHS with access to 'relevant and well-structured' information to inform them and help them make informed choices. The revolution is also geared helping clinicians find information and data -- and using digital technology to join things up that it can be shared. NHS local itself is part of this evolving approach. In a debate called 'Liberating the NHS?', which was recorded shortly before the establishment of the NHS Future Forum, a panel of four featuring Ian Cumming, OBE, chief executive of NHS West Midlands, Dr Andrew Coward, chair of the South Birmingham Integrated Care Commissioning consortium, Sue Davis, CBE, chair of Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust, and Jenny McCrorie, chair of Cleobury Patients' Voice, were asked questions on the impact of change on health services by NHS local presenter Charlotte Hume. They were joined in the discussion by an invited audience featuring representatives of senior hospital clinicians, patient groups, healthcare workers' unions and doctors and nurses in training.
