Performance Improvement in the Public with NHS England Breast Screening Recovery Programme

The impact of Covid-19 on the National Breast Screening Programme presented the largest and most complex challenge it had ever faced. Over 9 months, CF worked closely with the NHSE Public Health Commissioning Team to tackle this challenge, using data and targeted interventions to support the programmes aim to provide women across England with early breast cancer diagnosis.

People and Leadership with NHS National Workforce Recovery Programme

CF were commissioned by NHSE to support them to develop an understanding of the future workforce demand to inform the spending review submissions. We were asked to identify and quantify the predicted workforce gaps by 24/25 by care setting, considering a number of factors including elective recovery, long-term plan objectives and underlying workforce demand and capacity. This programme provided NHSE with a clear projection of their workforce composition over the next 5 years highlighting the gaps across care settings and staff groups which supported proactive decision making around future workforce planning.

Strategy with North Central London Community and Mental Health

CF were commissioned to develop the strategy for the future of Community and Mental Health services in North Central London. We worked in partnership with stakeholders to understand the case for change, to agree what the service offer for NCL residents should be, and to plan for implementation. Over the next 3 years, the NCL strategy for Community and Mental Health services will deliver a new, transformational and equitable service offer for residents.

“It is fantastic that CF are finalists in six categories at the 2022 MCA awards. As an SME this recognition is often harder to earn and I am really pleased the combined efforts of our teams and our clients are being recognised. Each day they go the extra mile to improve healthcare and we are excited to celebrate what has been achieved”
