Further insight into South Docs Services and their plans to tackle urology waiting times across Birmingham can be found here.
Like Louise said below, we are eager for you to share any helpful recommendations for the team from your own experience or general curiosities, and I hope to meet some of you in London at the first workshop on September 21st.

Sharing here a great article + podcast from the New Local site which I think y’all would enjoy… it’s the story of a physiotherapy team in Sussex, who have managed to reduce the average waiting time for appointments from 16 to 10 weeks in just two working days – using community power and strengths-based approaches.

About this group
This group has been created as part of the latest Q Lab project on creating collective responsibility to reduce delays in elective pathways.
Those involved in the project are invited to join, as well as other Q members who may have an interest or expertise in the topic area more broadly.
This group is a space to connect with others and we hope it will be a place for open conversations and discussions on this topic.
Please note this is a public group (anyone can see the discussions, although people will need to log in or create an account to post to the group).
This group is convened by Remi Apatira
Thanks Libby, was a great day and so useful to meet all involved.
The Flow Academy talks in particular were excellent and gave our team more insight into elective pathway management and understanding the determinants of flow.
We hope to undertake a Troika at work sometime soon too!
A great set of slides illustrating Lab work to date. I really do think that you are missing a trick if you don’t try some Process Management at one of your test sites. A good starting point is to do some process mapping using the Busyfish approach. This method is very simple and arrives at consensus on process in the shortest time. I can…Read more
Hi Libby, Being a reflector this is my delayed response! A few weeks on and I still reflect on the immense knowledge and inspiring passion from Q-Lab teams to improve services for patients. Learning from them has helped me embark on a very different engagement approach with my own system. It was an extremely valuable day and thank everyone…Read more
