Highly commended

Live Well with Pain proud to be recognised in prestigious national awards

It began with an incredible 456 incredible entries, each one (as the organisers say) “full of ideas to make care safer, smarter, and better for patients.”
From there, 216 exceptional projects – including, of course, Live Well with Pain – made it through to the shortlist. And then, after much deliberation, there were 25 incredible winners!
Live Well with Pain, along with colleagues from Joined Up Care Derbyshire, Health Innovation East Midlands, University of Durham, St George’s University Hospital and United Hospitals Birmingham were Highly Commended in the ‘Best use of integrated care and partnership working’ category. Which sums up the Live Well with Pain approach nicely, when you think about it.
Many congratulations to the team on an outstanding achievement.
