”But it’s always been done that way”

In Doctor Informed, we've been hearing a lot about the problems of healthcare, but we also want to talk about solutions. Whatever we're going to do to fix healthcare, whether that's bullying, or burnout, or patient safety - it's going to require change. And change is hard. In this episode Clara Munro is joined by Graham Martin, director of research at THIS Institute. They discuss the dreaded phrase "But it's always been done this way", and why failing is the path to success, and the true importance of listening. Our guests; Penny Pereira, Q managing director at the Health Foundation. Q helps promote improvement within the health and care system, encouraging and supporting a wide range of people to effectively lead improvement. https://www.health.org.uk/about-the-health-foundation/our-people/q-and-q-labs-team Moira Durbridge, director of safety and risk at University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust.
