Best Quality Improvement co-sponsors

The Health Foundation is an independent, charitable foundation working as a catalyst to improve the quality of healthcare in the UK and beyond. It aims to inspire, motivate and support people in healthcare to achieve the highest possible quality of care. Clinicians have a vital role in driving improvement. As the people working directly with patients, they are the ones who can really improve care at a local level.

The Department of Health believes that in the current economic environment it is vital that the NHS looks for efficiency savings so we can continue to deliver high quality care for every patient, as set out in High Quality Care for All published in June 2008.

Clinical Leadership sponsor, McKinsey & Company, is a management consulting firm working globally across industries, including extensive work in leadership development.

"We are delighted the BMJ is acknowledging the central place this holds for the NHS through this award for clinical leadership".

Getting Research into Practice sponsor, NHS Evidence, is for everyone working in healthcare, keeping them right up-to-date with best practice.
