Improving the sharing of informal and actionable knowledge for better care
In September – December 2020, The Faculty of Clinical Informatics (FCI) led a Knowledge Sharing workstream within the Health Data Research UK (HDR UK) Better Care Programme.
The Better Care programme is about building and scaling data-driven learning healthcare systems (LHSs) across the UK and the Knowledge Sharing workstream aimed to facilitate a sustainable process for communication and knowledge sharing across the Better Care community.
The workstream was part of the Better Care Catalyst Programme and was co-funded by HDR UK in partnership with the Health Foundation. The Better Care Catalyst Programme supports the development of health analytics and data science improvements that can be implemented across the health and care system to benefit patients, the workforce and the public.
