NHS Healthcare Science

Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest global health threats – making infections much harder to treat. This week I visited services in London, to find out how healthcare teams are taking action to protect the effectiveness of antibiotics and keep patients safe #WAAW2025

At St Bartholomew’s Hospital I met the AMS and haematology teams to learn about their work to tackle AMR, and at Royal London Hospital I visited the #WAAW2025 stand and explored how @NHSBartsHealth has achieved a recent reduction in broad-spectrum antibiotic use

Healthcare professionals in hospitals play a critical role in combatting antimicrobial resistance - refresh your knowledge of best practice and share with your team. Let’s protect patients, preserve antibiotics, and drive change together! #KeepAntibioticsWorking #WAAW2025

On 24 November, 12.30-1.30pm, join a webinar on key learnings around ‘Optimising the Blood Culture Pathway’. Key speaker Senior Scientific Advisor @kerrieanndavies will be joined by Sam Kelly, @NHSMidlands Pharmacy Project Manager at events.england.nhs.uk/events/optimis…

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global health threat, making common infections harder – or even impossible - to treat. Learn more about how we can combat AMR by joining one of our webinars: events.england.nhs.uk/world-amr-awar… #KeepAntibioticsWorking #WAAW2025

Three big shifts will change how the NHS works, enabling it to deliver better care for all patients – no matter where they live. From hospital to community. From analogue to digital. From sickness to prevention. Read the 10 Year Health Plan ⬇️

This is the 10 Year Health Plan to get the NHS back on its feet, and make it fit for the future. Three big shifts will change how the NHS works. Science is at the heart of this and the healthcare science profession is central to the change we want to see. gov.uk/government/pub…
