Getting it Right First Time (Part 2)

Launched in 2015, the Getting it Right First Time (GIRFT) programme is a change agent for quality improvement in the NHS. In September 2021 the GIRFT neurology report was published, which outlines a whole pathway approach for the management of unwarranted variation in neurology practice and the actions needed to improve patient outcomes. In part 1, published in BJNN volume 17 issue 6, Sue Thomas explored what GIRFT says about the organisation of neurology services and its recommendations for service delivery. Part 2 explores parallel services, commissioning and future directions.
