I am pleased to post the message below on behalf of Ian Maidment, National Manager - Patient Information, Cancer Services Collaborative 'Improvement Partnership' Putting patient information at the centre of health A modern health service delivers the right care in the right place at the right time. Waiting times are reducing, patients and carers are now being given choices about their health care. The Cancer Services Collaborative 'Improvement Partnership' has developed and produced national electronic patient information pathways that bring together a vast range of national cancer resources under one roof. These pathways provide information to patients, carers and health professionals at the touch of a button and links are provided to sections on a variety of national cancer websites. For the first time, people can see at a glance what is currently available for each tumour at different stages in the patient pathway. Bookmark the Pathways link and click on the others to find out more.
