Our pilot presented us with a number of challenges which we were able to overcome

11. www.hee.nhs.uk  Based on patient’s and trainees needs, skills needed and workforce availability, teams were created in innovative ways by deploying appropriate staff to improve patient care and training, in a cost-effective way.  Multi-professional project team, to problem solve and plan together for a practical solution that would work in our own context  Through the creation of a weekend multi-professional (doctors, nurses, HCAs, medical students and managers), ward-based, cold team, we have helped move towards 7 day working.

12. www.hee.nhs.uk Trainees: Focussed learning in blocks; opportunities for leadership; dedicated time in rota for educational activities. Patients: Better organisation and more efficient weekend cover, improved handover, higher expectation of levels of care by all. Nurses / HCA: Able to provide additional support for training doctors at weekends; greater empowerment at weekends to make a significant difference to the patient experience and to work effectively as part of a new enhanced, weekend team. Medical students: Part of enhanced weekend team, seamless transition into being a doctor in the new NHS. Further evidence
