  • Lead the adoption of evidence-based best practices within your clinical specialty, monitoring and evaluating patient care while developing clinical pathways to support this, including the implementation of suitable interventions in both hospital and community settings.
  • Collaborate strategically with local and national NHS organizations, non-NHS entities, Local Authorities, independent contractors, and the public to facilitate the application of best practices in your area of clinical expertise.
