In 2019 we were delighted that the ‘React to Red’ programme was named as a finalist for the Health Service Journal Patient Safety Award.

‘React to Red’ is an NHS initiative which aims to educate people on pressure ulcer prevention and the simple steps that can be taken to avoid them. By adapting this national approach, the CCG has been recognised thanks to an intensive face-to-face training programme within primary care settings which has improved quality life for elderly patients.

Thank you to all the hard working care staff in our area for their contribution to our success.
