Please note that any bookings made from today Thursday 5 March may not be able to accommodate any special dietary requirements you note due to venue lead time to accommodate such requests

Introduction

Over the last 18 months, the Cardiac Network within the Greater Manchester and Eastern Cheshire Strategic Clinical Networks (GMEC SCN) has been working on an improvement programme encompassing 5 project groups, one of which is the delivery of a NICE aligned pathway for heart failure.

We would like to provide the opportunity for teams to come together across Greater Manchester to discuss and plan ways for us to work together to improve cardiovascular health.

This area includes work being led by Health Innovation Manchester (HInM) for a new digitally-enhanced service for people living with heart failure in Greater Manchester, using data from existing implantable devices to transform care.

The overall aim of our project is to improve quality of life and outcomes for heart failure patients across Greater Manchester, supporting better diagnosis, improved treatment and management across a full patient pathway.

The purpose of the event is to present our heart failure outputs which comprises of the following:

• NT-Pro BNP Testing Comms piece for primary care
• Greater Manchester Heart Failure Care Plan for patients
• Acute and Community Heart Failure dashboards
• Greater Manchester Competency Framework for heart failure nurses
• ‘As is’ service maps for the localities across Greater Manchester
• Share findings from the HInM “Smart Hearts” heart failure project

These outputs have been produced alongside various stakeholders and are outcomes put together by members of our Community Heart Failure Working Group.

Aimed at key stakeholders including

Patients, carers, commissioners, charities, third sector organisations, consultants, practice nurses, heart failure nurses, clinical leads, primary care and GPs.
