    Hi Will,

    Would be great to speak more about the work you are doing. I’ve just started a QI Fellowship and planning to do a project looking at providing more integrated and personalised medicine to fibromyalgia patients in primary care. Would be great to hear more what youi’re doing – my email is selena.stellman@nhs.net

  • Hi everyone! I’m a GP in London and a Quality Improvement Fellow with the NHSE Newly qualified GP programme. I’m hoping to do a project working with fibromyalgia patients to provide more joined up care between primary and secondary care and a more personalised approach to their care. I’m currently doing some scoping and plan to do some…Read more

    • Hi Selena, I have recently worked on a co-design project with a Fibromyalgia patient group to improve care for this patient group in SE London. This included a patient questionnaire. Very happy to share experience and learning.

    Dear Matthew,
    Unfortunately I can’t attend as I’m GP on call but I would be really interested in this – I’m a newly qualified GP and doing a QI fellowship with our local PCN hoping to do a project with mental health patients – am really keen to try to get some more support and discuss ideas (especially as I’m at a really early stage in the project…Read more

    • Thanks Selena – I’ll let Rammya and others know. I’m sure we’ll be able to keep you in the loop.
      Great to hear about the QI fellowship with your PCN.
      You can always ask questions here, in the Mental Health SIG, – we can even retweet request to many thousands of people via the Q twitter account.

    Thanks Chris, that’s a great idea. I’m not sure how we currently do our recall for reviews but I think this could work well.

    Dear Tim,

    Thank you, that sounds great. Have these been patients who have already been quite engaged with primary care prior to starting doing these patient-reported measures? And have you found that their engagement has improved by using these? Intuitively one would feel that getting them to self-report and note improvement or deteriorations…Read more

    Hi, I’m a newly qualified GP doing a fellowship in quality improvement working in Hammersmith and Fulham. I’m planning to do a project withb the aim of improving the uptake of annual reviews for patients with serious mental illness in primary care – wondered if anyone is/has done any similar work who I could speak to? Thanks in advance!

    • We have been working with Surrey and Borders NHS FT, who have developed a new service called GPimhs (GP integrated mental health services) and we have been using a short set of patient-reported measures to look at changes in patients’ perceptions of their health status, well-being, health confidence, patient experience, service integration, shared…Read more

    • Fron an improving uptake point of view there is a trend to get patients to link any annual reviews with their birthday which makes it memorable and also helps to spread the reviews out over the year.
      You could even send a card to outline your intentions to improve quality, which Tim has also touched on in his answer.

    • Hi Selena,
      We don’t really know a great deal about these people. However, there is evidence from other sectors that the very act of (1) collecting PROMs and (2) feeding this information back to their clinicians, can improve outcomes. However, I think that it may require both (1) and (2) – not just (1). We also have evidence that you must ask…Read more
