The RightCare cystic fibrosis toolkit has now been published on the NHS England website. It was a privilege to work on this toolkit with my fellow professional group chairs, CF Consultants and community representatives. As below, it does not cover all aspects of CF care/service, as this is vast (as we well know), it does however focus on key areas where inconsistencies in service provision have been identified.
You can access the toolkit below.
This RightCare toolkit will help support systems to understand key priorities and ways of optimising cystic fibrosis care, by providing key actions for improvement.
It presents several priority areas across the cystic fibrosis pathway that highlight new and emerging areas of care, and where we know there is unwarranted variation that would benefit from further review and improvement.
The toolkit includes a self-assessment questionnaire which provides a method for assessment and benchmarking of current services.
