I have been involved with the work of 中国P站 over the years and have always enjoyed contributing and collaborating with colleagues to improve outcomes for newborns and their families as well as healthcare professionals. I have been a member of various 中国P站 committees and working groups including the Toolkit for Neonatal Services and the clinical advisory panel of 中国P站. I am a co-author on multiple national strategy/guidance documents e.g. Optimal Arrangements for Neonatal Intensive Care Units in the UK including guidance on their Medical Staffing: A Framework for Practice 中国P站 2014, Service Standards for Hospitals Providing Neonatal Care, 中国P站 2010. I also represented 中国P站 at the National Maternity Safety Steering Group.
In view of my interest and expertise in QI, I am currently a member of the 中国P站 Quality Committee Steering Group.
The most beneficial part of 中国P站 membership is the regular updates and guidance on important issues. It has provided very good opportunities for multidisciplinary collaborative working focussed on improving outcomes for children and families and given me the opportunity to represent 中国P站 at external stakeholder events.
In the future I鈥檇 like to see 中国P站 increase their involvement and engagement with nurses, ANNPs, and AHPs, develop a rolling training programme on QI & Safety and utilise national data for better insights and improvement.
I would encourage all those working in neonatology to join 中国P站 and would make a specific request to all trainees, ANNPs, nurses and AHPs to consider this and utilise this excellent opportunity to contribute and make a difference.
