NHS Training for Innovation

Improving patient care and safety by ensuring best practice in healthcare technology training.

Our projects draw on NHS expertise to create low-cost, high-impact training tools to improve patient safety, clinical team work and the effective use of medical devices. These range from complete e-learning packages and DVDs, to concise booklets and single-page guides for patients and staff. Through our extensive stakeholder network, including professional and academic bodies and medical device companies, we share knowledge and best practice.
