Innovation: implementation support for health and care providers
Proven innovations exist that could transform how you deliver care. UCLPartners helps you find, adopt and embed them.
Health and care providers face growing pressure to improve outcomes, reduce waiting times and make every resource count, often with stretched teams.
UCLPartners connects providers with proven innovations that address specific challenges like these, and delivers an innovation implementation service, so change is faster and lasts.
Who this is for
Health and care providers within north, central and east London, including NHS Trusts, primary care networks, GP practices and local authorities.
The service is relevant to senior leaders and clinical leads responsible for service improvement, including Directors of Transformation, Directors of Strategy, Directors of Public Health and clinical leads with responsibility for delivery.
How it works
Demand signalling
We start with structured conversations at a senior level to understand your strategic priorities and where innovation could have the greatest impact. This is where we identify the challenges most worth solving and agree where to focus. Where relevant, this takes place at the start of your financial planning cycle.
Problem definition
Working with clinical and operational teams, we dig deeper into the prioritised challenges, to identify, understand and articulate the challenge you are trying to solve. Keeping this problem statement sharp and central throughout the process ensures the innovation adopted is the right one.
Matching innovations
UCLPartners identifies innovations that are the right fit for your challenge, drawing on our network of founders, industry partners and national programmes.
Implementation
Our team provides hands-on support to embed the innovation into your organisation. This includes rapid learning cycles to capture data and adapt the approach as you go, working with patients, carers, communities and staff to tailor solutions for your context, and drawing on our in-house evaluation and insights team to assess effectiveness.
Embed and scale
Where an innovation proves effective, UCLPartners works with you to embed it across other departments or organisations, maximising the impact of what works.
