Abstract:

This research uses mixed methods to critically analyse health regulation systems in England, in a macro and micro sense. The qualitative side of the research involves interviews with key staff members from four NHS Trusts and two Clinical Commissioning Groups. These semi-structured interviews offer unique specific insights from the key actors, from varying perspectives in the process. The quantitative element of the research focuses on trends and correlations of the data sets used by particular arm’s length bodies operating in the policy area.

Abstract:

Recent years have seen dramatic changes in the quality infrastructure of the NHS in England. In addition to the large-scale restructuring that occurred under the 2012 Health and Social Care Act, there have been copious changes intended to address well-publicized and scandalous lapses in the quality of care. Meanwhile, the NHS in England is coping with ever-restrictive budgetary demands. The resultant picture is of dynamic and complex development with multiple players. Given this, a key question is how best to move forward? How to develop a balanced strategy for quality that develops short,

Abstract:

Background Research into the structural empowerment of nurse leaders (matrons, sisters / charge nurses, senior staff nurses) in middle management positions is of importance, as it is they who set an example to their teams and attempt to overcome barriers and maximise facilitators to high quality care and patient safety. A theoretical framework developed by Kanter (1977, 1993) established that opportunity, power and proportion are key determinants of structural empowerment in organisations. Few quantitative studies conducted in acute healthcare settings have investigated empowerment in nurse le

Abstract:

Background: External oversight institutions were introduced to the English National Health Service (NHS) in an attempt to encourage quality improvements and avoid failures of care. Despite the breadth of literature exploring the theoretical relationship between improvement of quality of care and external oversight, robust empirical evidence does not yet exist to support this premise. In this thesis, the effect and costs of the Care Quality Commission (CQC) external inspections of acute hospitals on quality of care are explored. The aim is to determine to what extent inspections are associated

Abstract:

This thesis analyses the impact of the NHS Bowel Cancer Screening Programme (BCSP) since its national implementation. A regional cancer registry (Northern Colorectal Cancer Audit Group, NORCCAG, database) and the regional BCSP database were combined to obtain the full screening history for all patients diagnosed with a colorectal cancer (CRC) in the North East of England, out of the population eligible for screening. The CRCs in the screening population between April 2007 and March 2010 were identified and classified into four groups: control (diagnosed before first screening invite), screen-d

Abstract:

This thesis evaluates the extent to which relationship marketing (RM) strategies were prevalent within the former NHS Internal Market and the determinants of such strategies. The research achieves its aims through the analysis of a postal survey of NHS Trust hospitals and District Health Authorities in England and case studies of the Warwickshire and Dudley health markets. The impetus for the research is the paucity of literature evaluating RM in the NHS context, resulting from the predominance of the traditional economics perspective on the purchaser - provider relationship.

This study did not however confirm the findings of previous studies that lower socio-economic groups tend to use the service less.

Abstract:

Background: The effects of ethical regulation in the form of review and bureaucratic procedures on research are perceived as challenging for researchers. The centrality of the achievement of informed consent in ethical regulation and review has also been problematised from a range of perspectives which view it as unachievable in some methodologies, as necessary but problematic, or as an overly bureaucratic requirement which makes it informed but not genuine. However, in the existing critiques of regulation, there is limited attention paid to ethics review which is where decisions are made abou

The central aim of this study was to explore the success of NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) policy in improving the joint working relationship between health and social care in England.

The Framework aimed to standardise criteria and make the process clearer and fairer to access; joint working in key areas was a central mandate. Study objectives were to identify changes in consistency in application of CHC eligibility criteria and uniformity of practices in response to th

This study is a critical investigation of electronic patient records in the National Health Service in England.

Against the backdrop of a government vision of a nationally networked EPR the research takes a meso level perspective using primary data from interviews with users across multiple NHS Trusts and healthcare settings.

Abstract:

In this thesis, I argue that the practice of visiting patients on the more general acute medical and surgical wards in National Health Service hospitals in England has been underresearched and is frequently overlooked by policy. This is despite the large number of written complaints received annually about NHS acute hospital care services in England. The thesis commences with an extensive examination of the contextual influences on hospital visitors’ experiences and expectations.

Abstract:

This study investigates the relations between doctors, nurses and managers in a primary care trust in South East England in an era of neoliberal reform since the 1980s. Using two concepts from the work of the cultural theorist Raymond Williams – ‘epochal’ analysis and ‘structures of feeling’ – the case study group is seen as an ‘occupational tripartite’ within a dynamic cultural totality. Using interpretive phenomenological analysis, interview data is examined and reveals aspects of tradition being used by both doctors and nurses in ways that tend towards organisational inertia and support exi
