\nMuch of the care carried out in hospital outpatient clinics could be successfully transferred to primary care, UK research <\/a>has found.<\/p>\n
\n
\nPractice nurses and GPs in West London are now offering booked services seven days a week at two new hubs funded by local commissioners.<\/p>\n
\n
\n<\/strong>The May 2016 NICE Bites bulletin from the North West Medicines Information Service covers Controlled drugs: safe use and management (NG46)<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 The aim of this publication is to provide healthcare professionals with a clear and succinct summary of key prescribing points taken from the NICE guidance, NG46.\u00a0 This guideline covers systems and processes for using and managing controlled drugs safely in all NHS settings except care homes.<\/p>\n

\nNHS Rightcare has published the last four in its set of Commissioning for Value packs<\/a> for CCGs to help them identify the best opportunities for improving value for their populations. The focus packs are on Cancer and Tumours; Mental Health and Dementia; Maternity and Early Years; and Musculoskeletal, Trauma and Injuries. The information contained in each pack is designed to support local discussions and inform a more in-depth analysis around common conditions and pathways.<\/p>\n
\n
\nA clinical commissioning group which is under directions from NHS England spent \u00a3500,000 on two \u201coff payroll\u201d interim executives last year.<\/p>\n

\nThis report <\/a>proposes that instead of Health Education England (HEE) making upfront payments for the training of its medics, medical students should be required to take out a loan from the Student Loans Company to cover the total cost of their training. It argues that the eradication of upfront payments by the NHS would mean the current cap on the number of doctors training each year could be lifted and the UK could train the number of doctors it needs. In addition to this, such a training loan would be repaid on behalf of each medic by the NHS through HEE on condition that doctors work for the NHS after graduating. If graduates leave the country to work abroad or transfer from the NHS into the private sector they would become liable for the repayment of these loans.<\/p>\n

\nThis report <\/a>shows results of the experiences of BME and white staff from the staff survey 2015 at every NHS trust across England. It looked at four indicators across acute trusts, ambulance trusts, community provider trusts, and mental health and learning disability trusts. The results show a picture of variation across the health service with some trusts making progress, whilst others still have a considerable way to go.<\/p>\n
