Welcome to Oxford and NAMEM conference

Michael Bannon, PG Dean Oxford

Living in interesting times….

• This year so far:– Three white papers– NHS operational outcomes framework– Health and social care bill– Skills networks– A pause, listing exercise and a Future Forum– SHA clustering

Financial scissors of doom

So what will happen?

Where do we go from here?

1. Acknowledge the spirit of recent White Papers

2. Increased emphasis on quality

3. Make best use of available resources (Value for money, lean thinking, reduced duplication of effort)

4. Raise our game and enhance our profile

5. Adhere to vision and values
