Tackling community health challenges through innovation.
Insight 2: Tackling community health challenges through innovation
Medilink Midlands are delighted to be collaborating with Arise Innovation Hubs and Innovate UK in a series of events for autumn and winter 2025/26. The second of these looks at an overarching theme in the NHS’s current 10-year plan, which aims to make the NHS fit for the future.
As we look to move from research to reality how are we going to enable more of us to be treated within the community, keeping our hospitals ready for those times when we really need them. In a recent paper by the Welcome Trust it becomes clear that we need to put research at the heart of health, we need to improve and equalise outcomes.
We will look at the barriers and opportunities for working with the community addressing the following questions:
- How do we enable patchy patient engagement to become a network of proactive and involved citizens?
- How do we enable research to be embedded into everyday care, with trustworthy data infrastructure and incentivised for all to engage?
- How do we ensure adoption of innovations are widespread, allowing innovations to be scaled?
