Good Things
Overall Good is how Sheffield Children's Hospital was rated by the Care Quality Commission in the report published on 5th August 2014.
You can see the report here
The CQC has also published Getting it right for children & young people (including those transitioning into adult services): a report on the CQC’s new approach to inspection. Some of the report's recommendations formed the basis of the pilot inspection of our Trust.
Things the Trust is involved in - Genes
Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust and Sheffield Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust are seeking to be a Genomic Medicine Centre. This is part of the 100,000 Genomes project aiming to provide a resource for research into the genetic basis of disease.
The Clinical Genetics department leads on research into Juvenile Huntington's disease and last week received a visit from a Belgian cyclist who is raising awareness of the disease.
Things you copy
For the next 6 weeks you will see these yellow boxes next to photocopiers in the Trust. The Copyright Licensing Agency is collecting data on what is copied so authors, artists and publishers are correctly remunerated for their work. Instructions next to the boxes will tell you what to do. There will also be a survey of what material is scanned and sent but will be undertaken by an identified number of individuals.
Things to help you
The Library's Clinical Question Answering Service
If you need help to find the evidence to write guidelines, care plans, make clinical decisions, update your knowledge, look no further than the library. Sarah & Gill can do free literature searches for you and send you relevant articles (small charge for these). We have recently received positive feedback that our work significantly helped a department with their decision making. To request a literature search fill in this form.
Friday things - FISH
This creamy tart is full of smoky fish and sweet prawns, but less heavy than the usual mash-topped pie
The recipe can be found on the BBC Good Food site here.
