Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Foundation Trust (GOSH) is an international centre of excellence in paediatric healthcare. Since its formation in 1852, the hospital has been dedicated to providing world-class healthcare to children and young people with complex health needs and finding new and better ways of treating childhood illnesses. There are over 60 different clinical specialities at GOSH, the UK’s widest range of specialist health services for children on one site. Your visit to GOSH will provide a unique opportunity to gain insights into the management of complex patients, share learning and engage in meaningful discussions and reflections on improving healthcare quality and safety.


The curated experience day will start with introductory and plenary sessions focused on the work done at GOSH and how multidisciplinary teams provide high quality, safe healthcare to children and young people with complex health needs. Participants will then be divided into smaller groups for specific break-out sessions that will focus on the complexity of patients in our care and the ways in which teams are developed and supported in delivering this care. During these sessions you will meet frontline staff, leaders in safety and quality improvement and engage in discussions about some of the projects that are currently in progress. The day will conclude with an opportunity to share your experiences and reflect on how you can apply the lessons learned in your own workplace.
