We’ve published ‘Learning from the Best – celebrating patient experience innovations to help deliver the 10 Year Plan’, which maps the #PEN25 Awards winners to the Plan’s key chapters, and now includes direct links to the project presentations for easy learning: bit.ly/PEN10YearPlan. [2/2]

The #NHS10YearPlan sets out a clear ambition: to build a healthcare system fit for the future, shifting care from hospitals to communities, from analogue to digital, and to strengthen quality, safety, and equity for all. Delivering that vision will also depend on how people experience care. [1/2]
