Flexible working and e-rostering are key to keeping more nurses in the health service, a new report by NHS England suggests. The organisation has published a new analysis of its People Promise staff retention initiative, which has seen trusts offered support to implement changes to prevent staff from quitting. “I’d encourage all NHS organisations to prioritise retention” Em Wilkinson-Brice Of the 23 trusts that made up the first cohort of the programme, all but one recorded a significant decrease in their all-staff monthly leaver rates. Across all the trusts, leaver rates fell collectively by 11.8% more than non-exemplar trusts over…
In the health care landscape, often dominated by discussions of senior care and chronic disease management, innovation is changing the spotlight to an increasingly overlooked but important population: children. “In major metro areas, when you actually map a 50% highest income postal code and a 50% lowest income ZIP code, there is often a 2-to-1 difference between pediatricians per person.” Recently, Bluebird, which raised $31.5 million to expand its innovative pediatric healthcare platform, aims to bridge the gap in access to primary care for children, especially Medicaid.

by Doug Donovan / Published March 4, 2025 It started with a simple idea in 2009 when I came to Sara Sandton while I was calling my house as a visiting nurse in West Baltimore. So Southernton began with 42 elderly Baltimore residents in a NIH-funded pilot clinical trial, sending out a rare team for home visits. Healthcare professionals and home repair workers improved the participants' physical exercise and physical environment, allowing them to age in a home that suits their specific needs. The 2012 grant from the National Institutes of Health's National Aging Institute launched hundreds of more definitive…
System architectureIoT-based healthcare systems utilize service forwarding to the appropriate patient. This deployment of an IoT environment enables ubiquitous and convenient patient access to related services. The ubiquitous data is stored in an authorized repository to determine access to secure users. In the healthcare industry, IoT detects the data; based on this, the service is provided on time. The computation time is decreased, and the patients handle the relevant information. The storing of relevant and irrelevant data is done on the repository; from this approach, the access level states the user’s health. This study proposes a fully decentralized authentication strategy…
