Knowledge Matters V10 I2

Volume 10 Issue 2 March 2016 Welcome to Knowledge Matters Welcome all to another seasonal issue of Knowledge Matters. Easter is a time of rebirth and growth (and also chocolate), and this is no less true for the Quality Observatory. Some of you know that Kate Cheema, one of our long standing stalwarts of team QO, is moving onwards and upwards to new challenges, and as a result the team are taking the opportunity to shuffle around some workloads and give some people new growth opportunities. Talking of growth we’re keeping ourselves busy at the QO—we’ve been recommissioned by NHS England to carry on with the Friends and Family Test dataset, and our Maternity Dashboard has had a lot of interest, especially in the wake of the recently published National Maternity Review. You can read about all of this inside this issue. Other delights in this issue include a review of the Public Health Intelligence training provided by Public Health England, that some of the team went on. Nikki has been working closely with some of the Vanguard CCGs which has informed her article on collecting new data for measurement. Hope you enjoy this issue of Knowledge Matters. If there’s a burning topic you want to raise, or a piece of work that you want to show off then please let us know and you could contribute to future issues. Have a relaxing (and chocolate filled) Easter holiday, and we’ll be with you again in the summer.
