The Convenzis Patient Flow conference series provides a platform for NHS urgent care professionals and clinical specialists to meet and discuss changes in national policy and strategic change. Over 1500 delegates have already joined us and benefited from this high-value networking and research platform.
“First of all, can I just say what a good event it was yesterday? I personally took a lot of good ideas away from the day and made some good working connections, which will hopefully help us improve things for patients here in C&P.” Head of Transformation, Performance and Delivery – Urgent Care at Cambridgeshire & Peterborough CCG
The COVID-19 outbreak undoubtedly triggered the most challenging year the NHS has ever faced, however, the outbreak, has by default, provided a springboard for NHS facing innovation and technology adoption.
A&E attendances and emergency admissions also saw a significant reduction, the total number of attendances in January 2021 was 1,310,800, a decrease of 38.0% from the same month last year. Of these, attendances at type 1 A&E departments were 29.1% lower when compared with January 2021 and at type 3 departments were 53.4% lower.
As a key objective within the NHS Long Term Plan, NHS E/I have developed a paper that sets out how urgent and emergency care provision will be developed, drawing on outcomes and learnings from the Covid-19 outbreak.
The paper aims to deliver improved outcomes and a better experience of care, whether that is by phone or online from NHS 111, at home from a paramedic, in a GP practice or pharmacy, or when necessary, in the emergency department.
This conference has been developed as a platform to help NHS and wider healthcare professionals sharpen their knowledge of the latest best practice and national policy. We are proud to offer all NHS staff and healthcare professionals from low-income counties fully funded, complimentary delegate passes.

Chairs Opening Address
Putting patients at the centre of community services; how we do we truly transform community services to support more people to stay well and independent at home? (Confirmed)
The NHS Long Term Plan set an ambition to boost ‘out of hospital’ care. Throughout the pandemic community health services have shown that delivering care to people at home is vital to prevent unnecessary hospital admissions and for those who do need hospital treatment, support timely and safe discharge from hospital.
Increasing capacity in community services is crucial not only to free up hospital beds for those with the greatest clinical need, but to support people to live independently at home for longer. It will require closer collaboration across the health and social care system. How do we build on the opportunities in the integration white paper to forge effective working relationships across health and social care?
This session will explore the available opportunities to increase capacity in community services through utilising non-bedded care, care at home and through new ways of delivering care such as virtual wards.

Mental Health Patient Flow – A Healthier Patient Pathways Programme
GMMH is a Mental Health Foundation Trust based in the North West. Due to substantial pressure experienced on bed capacity and flow, a clinically led transformation programme commenced via a series of workstreams ‘Healthier Patient Pathways’. Outcomes include improved flow and a reduction in out of area placements to a zero position, supporting closer to home principles, underpinned by the trust vision ‘best care everyday’. A quality improvement approach has been utilised delivering improved systems via a model of sustainability.
