The Chair of the Health Innovation Network has responded to Lord Darzi’s Independent Investigation of the NHS in England.
Richard Stubbs, Chair of the Health Innovation Network, said: “This report identifies and recognises the challenging context that the NHS workforce operates in day in, day out. It exposes some of the difficulties that patients experience when they turn to the NHS for help, and the complexities in our current care delivery model. It is only through the effective implementation of innovation across the NHS and community settings that we can move forward from the findings of the report.
“The Health Innovation Network has over a decade of experience delivering innovation locally and nationally to improve patient outcomes.

We must focus on supporting implementation and adoption of innovation to tackle some of the challenges highlighted by Lord Darzi’s review.”
