Open Health Hub is a free, open forum for discussion of health tech, clinical informatics, and digital health. It's been around for nearly 10 years, quietly existing as an independent, @discourse.org-driven site. Please do check out what we have on there - it's a place for all Digital Health.

Gets worse as the thread progresses. Is this because of the mergers and cutbacks in the centre? Perhaps we shouldn't do that in such a slapdash way again? Oh wait

VRmageddon week 1 is nearly over and I am shattered. A lot of time spent wondering what the hell I'm going to do if I leave, and if that will be digital health related. Yesterday: I live for digital health! Today: I hate all of this! So fun.

I have listened to everything @jonronson.bsky.social has recorded countless times driving up and down the country (always getting weirdly excited when he mentions the hospital in the village I'm from) and am pleased to say I loved this show from start to finish. Can't wait for the new book!!

Years ago I grabbed my digital health nerd pals & formed a D&D campaign. It is my absolute delight to bring a very special session live on stage! The conference agenda is already amazing but this will be something extra special ✨ join us on our quest!

I'm running a team "lunch and learn" session next week about conducting an evaluation for benefits realisation in NHS digital projects, something I myself have enjoyed learning about over the years from some brilliant and clever people. I really poured my heart & soul into this 💫

One of my mentees reached out to ask for interview advice and they've only bloody gone and got their first digital job 🎉 and it's an EPR implementation support role!! So chuffed for them!

Nadia Kuftinoff @nadiakuftinoff.biz · 14/05/2025

As suspected, my ICB is going to merge with the ICB next door... Or perhaps some of it, with other bits going to other ICBs. Everything feeling a bit Sisyphean.

I have no idea what this means for my team and no one else seems to either. My guess is that GPIT will go to the CSUs and the rest... 🤷‍♀️

As we try to forget about the ICB cuts until we know more about them, one of my projects is satisfyingly turning into essentially the recommendations of my MSc dissertation. Also had feedback that a stakeholder said some really nice things about me. Some smiles in the doom and gloom ☀️

Starting 2025 with a short thread of my favourite, must-watch, YouTube video recommendations for anyone in Digital Health, HealthTech, Clinical Informatics, or trying to change culture in large organisations. Don't do ANYTHING else until you've watched ALL of them.

The only time of year where approving purchase requisitions for monitors kind of feels like I'm the GPIT Father Christmas and if that doesn't inspire the spirit of the season in you I don't know what will 🎄

A phenomenal weekend with friends in the Scottish Highlands. Am sure I will feel refreshed and recharged after a good night's sleep - the 10 hour roadtrip today has turned me to jelly. Worth it!! ⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

We got our letters by email confirming where we are in the restructure today - annoyingly no 'master organogram' with names against roles. Sure there was a good reason for this (?) but very difficult as a line manager to support my direct reports, who I am not managing anymore 😔

If you thought getting Oasis tickets was an adrenaline rush I assure you it's nothing compared to a recording of the long running radio comedy antidote to panel games now on its 82nd series I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue announcing a last minute venue change to one 20 minutes from your house.

The independent report into the NHS by Darzi is now published. Here’s a summary of the some tech aspects & some thoughts. 🧵 TLDR: It’s honest, touches on the main tech issues like infrastructure but at a surface level & over emphasises the tech but not the skills, capacity etc. 1/11

This report is such a hot topic that even my dad gave me an article about it 😂 he's always chuffed when he finds something about digital health in the paper. Eagerly awaiting your thoughts on it friends, Papa K wants to know! 😁

Thrown in the deep end covering for a colleague on Leave this week and it's a bit exciting - I'm helping get a same day urgent access hub based in a hospital up and running!! So cool 😀 and complicated. And we have 2 weeks to pull it off. My inbox is on fire 😂 but I'm loving it!

The 3 P's of the Office Apocalypse: Parking Passes (getting into the office a bit challenging without them) P1 Notifications - what I get when IT goes down 😵‍💫 BUT lovely to see people & had a good chat with a GP on the phone who had a sense of humour about the dodgy IT. Always appreciated!!

Little wins of the day: 🤝 Met with a supplier account manager & helped with insight 💻 Helped a teammate by giving them the gift of the NHSmail helpdesk 😂 📊 Slapped a slide deck together for our CDIO ✍🏻 Gently encouraged some contract variations to get a signature, should be sorted soon ☺️

Of course the one time I wear band merch with a huge skull on it (Misfits) instead of a plain black t-shirt is when my CCIO says "this is usually when Nadia says something inspirational" in a directorate meeting so everyone looks at me 😂 back to plain black tomorrow!

Still from a Goth 2 Boss advert from the TV show The IT Crowd which taught me everything I needed to know about tech in a corporate environment

Late night coffee & catch up with a lovely friend who I know from working together on my very first NHS project when I was a weeny 23 year old! So good to spend time together. They're big in the social policy world now. So proud to see them thrive 🩷

Late night coffees which definitely means I'm not sleeping anytime soon

A challenging day in ICB Land so let's accentuate some positives! 1. Signed up for a course to do in my spare time about behaviour change interventions which I'm so excited for 🤩 delivered by the Behavioural Science team at UCL. It's going to be ace.

Dashboard despair in ICB Land today. Months of work has led to a gigantic brick wall. Plan B and C don't look like they stand much of a chance. Meeting senior management this week to chat about it. Feel deflated :( What does everyone else do when things go properly sideways?

It's weird seeing my ICB on the BBC website. Need for lead per place doesn't just magically disappear. I'm 1 of 3 in my directorate & I'm really hoping we stay that way. Also, consultations suck and our financial restrictions are saddening. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
