Also fab talk from @powerNHS on women’s history in the ambulance service and the brilliant Ruth and Charlie shared their brilliant children’s book ‘hello ambulance’ @NWAmbulance

Fab time facilitating the women’s network event. A little pirate inspiration to help us think about what rules we want to follow, how we support one another and what action we’ll take on issues like maternity, parenting, menopause and sexual safety #BeMorePirate @PhillipaWinter
Brilliant - what a great personal story - thank you Emily for your service and leadership ❤️ – at Liverpool, England

Q3: one of the most common barriers I've seen to quality improvement over the years is leaders losing interest or energy or moving on to other priorities. Most large scale change efforts fizzle out. Having constancy of purpose for the long haul is critical for sustainable improvement #LeadingQI #QIHour

Joe Loughran @NWAmb_Panel @NWAmbulance sharing how we can work with patients and public to understand how long A&E waiting times are. Joe is running a test of change in his local area on increasing awareness of how to access live waiting time data #cmhandover

Great to see our ED Matron Sarah present on work we’ve been doing to reduce ambulance handover delays in RLH ED @LivHospitals since December.
Q: Is it “fixed”?
No.
Q:Is it better?
Yes. And we’ve got data to prove it.
Never underestimate the importance of better.
Great sessions this am - ready for a re-start!! Let’s go…… – at Warrington, England
It's a wrap! The teams are not just working on solutions but finding the right solutions, collaborating, thinking about the system and the patients. Looking forward to the next time! @helenckg @Aqua_NHS @delfcrg @NWAmbulance
Kicking off with the data - @NWAmbulance analyst Ed tells the story over time @Aqua_NHS @NHSNW
Thank you so much to @TheIHI for the MFI - used globally to improve health and care - a universal resource for all @NWAmbulance @Aqua_NHS @NHSNW
