Less money
…and many more!

SURGICAL TRADITIONS are hard to change!
Unnecessary admissions
Unnecessary waits
Poorer outcomes
Poor patient satisfaction
An unmanageable take…
“…acutes are something you just get through…”
![Page 10: Principles of Surgical Same Day Emergency Care a 10 year plan](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022071614/6157e99ad807ac77400ec96a/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Time for change…
The aims of ambulatory care – a ‘mission statement’:
Fewer admissions
Shorter length of stay
Quicker operations
Fewer complications
A shorter list
A manageable take

Lots of people don’t think we have to change
“We do all that already” “Our hospital is different to yours”
Lots of people don’t think we can change
“My colleagues would never agree to that” “We’ve got not money – we can’t build anything or employ anyone”
There is amazing work going on every day
We are terrible at learning from each other
SDEC @ CHFT – what I’ve learnt

Sustainable work patterns (even for the senior consultants)
Can enjoy a beer at the end of the day!
Everyone needs to embrace the concept
Change without approval of other departments Anaesthetics / Radiology / Theatre Staff
Start on a trial basis
