Out with the Cowboys! The UK government is currently consulting on the proposal to remove the Care Quality Commission (CQC) exemption for providing treatment of disease or disorder at temporary events or sporting arenas. This move could significantly impact the way medical services are provided at events such as festivals, fairs, and sporting arenas. Regulation in the events sector has been a hot topic for many years and Presently, medical treatment at temporary events is often provided by organisations that do not fall under the CQC's regulatory framework. This exemption has allowed event organisers to arrange medical care without the extensive compliance requirements that permanent facilities must meet. However, the government believes that this exemption could compromise the quality and safety of care provided to attendees. The CQC is the regulator for all other health and social care settings and ensures care is safe, effective, caring, well-led and responsive. Whilst the element of transporting patients from an event to a hospital is a regulated activity, some providers are skirting registration by misleading event organisers despite the requirements not to call 999 for all but the smallest low-risk events. Removing the CQC exemption would mean that all medical providers at temporary events would need to register with the CQC and adhere to its stringent standards. This includes ensuring proper staffing, maintaining medical equipment, and following specific protocols for patient care. The goal is to enhance the safety and quality of medical services provided at these events, ensuring a consistent standard of care. The impact of this change could be significant. Some event organisers may face increased costs and logistical challenges in meeting CQC requirements. There is an argument that smaller events might struggle with the additional administrative burden, potentially leading to fewer events or higher ticket prices. The contrary argument from regulated providers who spend considerable amounts of money on patient safety and governance, often only to be undercut by unregulated providers who can make large profits with minimal overheads or lack of knowledge or consideration for patient safety, regulations or governance is that the much-needed legislation will create a fairer playing field for providers. Some unregulated providers have been known to hire vehicles from CQC regulated providers thinking this lets them borrow their registration, which in itself shows a lack of insight in to the purpose of the regulations and poses significant risk to the public. The majority of members of the public aren't aware of the difference as all providers look similar and are usually dressed in green. However, the public deserves safer standards of care, which would reduce the risk of medical incidents and improve overall safety at temporary events.

The importance of clear and professional signage in hospitals and medical facilities cannot be overstated. These institutions often host various events like health fairs, training sessions, and fundraising galas, all of which require signage that is not only clear and professional but also reflective of the institution's credibility and values. In healthcare settings, clear and accessible signage plays a crucial role in directing attendees, outlining schedules, and communicating health and safety guidelines. Having a reliable signage partner ensures that all materials are professional, legible, and effective, even in high-stress situations. High-quality signage not only conveys professionalism but also builds trust among patients, staff, and the community. It projects credibility, which is particularly important during events where impressions can shape perceptions of care standards. Given the diverse audiences that hospitals cater to, customized signage is essential. From patient-friendly directions to donor-focused branding, tailored signage is key. An experienced signage partner can also ensure compliance with safety, legal, and ADA standards, simplifying installation and logistics. Effective signage goes beyond just communication; it enhances engagement through creative designs and offers cost-efficient solutions that align with sustainability goals. By partnering with the right signage provider, hospitals and medical facilities can host successful events that instill confidence, drive engagement, and embody their mission of care. #hospital #medical #signage #Communication

Yesterday I had the privilege of my regular visit to Melrose Surgical Centre. I also serendipitously had the pleasure of being seated on my flight next to an international event planner. I always find "the elevator pitch" that we use when introducing ourselves to a stranger interesting. An "elevator pitch" is that 40 second intro when you either capture attention or "switch the person off". I caught myself explaining my passion for #Healthcare yet again as well as reaffirming how I couldn't work in any other environment. I just simply love it! From co-creating strategy to curating the optimal patient experience -the content, context and challenges are #extraordinary. You have the opportunity to always do better so that the patient journey is enhanced. And, yes, the devil is in the detail. Finesse is about paying attention to the detail - from clinical governance through to stakeholder engagement. Finesse should always extend to paying attention to the detail - from clinical governance through to stakeholder engagement. Having had the opportunity to curate the patient and doctor experience in many hospitals counts as a highlight of my life. Enjoy these pics I took of the exceptional "foodie experience" patients enjoy at Melrose Surgical Centre. Thank you Johannesburg for the exquisite Jacaranda blooms. What experience have you curated and how has this brought you joy and fulfilment? What is YOUR elevator pitch? Let me know in the comments below -I look forward to seeing what you say! #patientjourneymapping #Stakeholderengagement #BestCareAlways

What is your elevator pitch? Do you have impactful words that summarise your offering?
