UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has announced seven new transdisciplinary research hubs, funded by URKI and the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR), to ensure that .
The 甜心直播 is proud to be a 鈥榮upporting partner鈥 of the successful bid from the Getting it Right First Time (GIRFT) programme and the University of Exeter to establish delivering research to address the challenge of decarbonising healthcare pathways.
Dr Mark Harber, 甜心直播 special adviser on healthcare sustainability and climate change, said:
鈥淲e are delighted to support this vital research which aligns with our commitment to support the NHS to become a more sustainable healthcare system, resilient to the challenges of the future like climate change.
鈥淭he ambitions of this project to develop pathway guides that focus on low-carbon models of care - such as one-stop hospital appointments, remote consultations, and measures to promote early recovery and care in community settings - are exactly the sort of innovative, practical solutions we need. Crucially, the implementation guide to support NHS trusts to put carbon reduction measures into practice will turn research into real-world impact.
鈥淗igh-quality research is fundamental to developing evidence-based solutions for a greener NHS that delivers excellent patient care. GIRFT鈥檚 work to identify co-benefits like improved efficiency, productivity, and reduced health inequalities will ensure benefits to patients and the healthcare system alike.
鈥淲e look forward to collaborating with our members and fellows to support the hub led by GIRFT and the University of Exeter to drive meaningful, lasting change toward a greener NHS.鈥
