Operations and Performance Initiative of the Year

National PROMs Network : National PROMs Network (Northumbria Healthcare FT, The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital FT, Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh FT and other NHS Organisations)

The National PROMs Network is a network of individuals committed to working together to share experience and support in the relatively young but rapidly growing area of collecting and using Patient Reported Outcome Measures. Initially focussing on orthopaedics, it has become clear that there is a real need for such a resource across many specialities for people who have been given “PROMs” as part of their regular job. Support and educational understanding of what the data represents has widened our membership to include researchers, platform developers, and academics in addition to surgeons, managers, nurses, physiotherapists and other healthcare teams.
