Richard Gleave, Public Health England and Professor Sue Dopson, Said Business School give a talk for the Green Templeton Lectures 2017: Delivering Health: Clinical, Management and Policy Challenges.
The challenges presented when attempting to get research evidence into medical practice are notorious and, because of this, there exists a healthcare gap which warrants discussion. The relationship between the professions, management and government inevitably leads to one important question: 'who is accountable for quality improvement?' This lecture explored the term 'accountability' in relation to evidence based healthcare, and outlined the difficulties faced when attempting to implement research in both policy and medicine. For those of you weren't able to make it to this instalment of the Green Templeton Lectures, we have provided a full summary of the talk (PDF).
