Last week, we exhibited at #HSRUK25 and had a great time connecting with colleagues across the health and social care sector.
Many attendees were already familiar with or involved in JLA PSPs, and it was a fantastic chance to introduce others to the impactful work of PSPs.
Carlos Sillero Rejon & HEHTA's Robert Heggie held their first in-person ImplementEcon workshop at #HSRUK25 last week.👏
Participants explored trade-offs in effectiveness, cost-effectiveness & implementation, followed by discussion on incorporating these into decision frameworks. 💪
Congratulations to my PhD student Naomi Carlisle and the public contributor on her research Claire Garner, for winning the #HSRUK25 Patient Led Research Award! 👏🙌👏
It was a fantastic couple of days. Some great energy and discussions, in the workshops especially. Well done all involved! 🤓👍 #HSRUK25 #SocialCare #Research #NIHR @healthfoundation.bsky.social
Great to start to share this work. In the context of the conference, it was nice to see how the framework and our development method could fit into ongoing research focused on evaluating different changes to care pathways to support the 10 year plan. #HSRUK25

#HSRUK25: the conference of health services research on the UK. Ian Kirkpatrick’s presented on our study of NHS management capacity and capability. You can find out more on this study on the project website: lnkd.in/eP4RkwA8. Enjoyed the morning run too!!
And that's a wrap on #HSRUK25! Thank you to everyone who joined us in Newcastle this week! We are very proud to have hosted a programme full of innovative research, lively discussions and powerful reflections on how HSR can support a fairer and more sustainable health and care system.
We're now kicking off the closing plenary of #HSRUK25! Exploring how we can make HSR careers more inclusive, chaired by Alicia O’Cathain, Professor of Health Services Research

#HSRUK25 great plenary on innovative research to improve workforce efficiency and sustainability. We might already know what doesn't work for the workforce but we don't know what are the different needs and we need to find the solutions. Join the workforce research network to step up and co-create!
Workforce first up today, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37365008/
Really struck by the potential of asynchronous focus groups as a way of allowing busy health care professionals to engage with research #hsruk25
Day 2 #HSRUK25 plenary focusing on workforce: how will innovative research deliver impact? Methodological reflections: use of realist reviews, novel qual methods (e.g. social media analysis, asynchronous online focus groups) & tiered knowledge mobilisation (local➡️international) @hsruk.bsky.social
Day two at #HSRUK25. Workforce wellbeing and issues of equity, using social media and online-based research.
Gillian Vance opening #HSRUK25 plenary this morning by highlighting the workload challenges experienced by health & care staff in underserved areas, and how the new NIHR funded partnership for workforce sustainability (Workforce Voices) will research and co-design solutions with local stakeholders.
Three talks from our team @ #HSRUK25 today

What a first great day at #HSRUK25 learned a lot about the amazing research that is happening across the UK. So good to see the impact it is having and how the relevant people are involved in everyone's work. Now looking forward to some networking and catching up at the conference dinner ;)
