Dr Vincent Mak is a consultant physician in respiratory integrated care at Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, and was clinical director of the London Respiratory Network.
The Royal College of Physicians has conducted the largest study to date of the quality of care given to patients in the UK with COVID-19 to identify learnings from the pandemic.
The RCP has welcomed publication of government plans for new NHS legislation in England, which would begin to be implemented in 2022 if passed into law.
Ahead of proposed legislative changes, Dr Jonathan Steel, RCP lead fellow for social care, discusses the importance of locally owned models of care in enabling integration.
The RCP has launched new guidance that aims to help healthcare workers ensure that the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) does not impair patient safety.
We spoke to Ken Tait and Angela Chesworth, two members of the PCN, who share a bit about themselves, give their opinions on the importance of collaboration and tell us about the recent Global Patients Congress to mark World Patient Safety Day.
