What is Operation FLOW?

Operation FLOW is a plan for a sustainable and resilient way forward with a clear focus on improving patient and staff experience as well as key performance improvements.

The new program is focused at improving the system across the full patient pathway from avoiding hospital admission through to discharge and beyond.  To ensure that we can sustain the improvement plans in we have established the Operation FLOW 2 Programme structure.

Despite the very significant financial challenges that we face this year we have agreed with our Board to invest over £5million in new posts. Investing in these new posts across the system will support the changes required. Following the firebreak, we listened to feedback from staff who told us investment in our workforce was important to making sustainable changes through Operation FLOW. Given the financial challenges facing NHS Lanarkshire and other Boards, it is important that we get the maximum benefit from this investment. The funding will help unlock the huge potential to make real changes through Operation FLOW, but by far the most important thing is how we make best use of our existing resources and workforce to transform our system.
