A Joint British Association of Day Surgery & HCUK Virtual Conference Elective recovery still remains a significant focus of the NHS. Although progress has been made on long waits, waiting list numbers remain at record highs and in response The Elective Recovery Taskforce has been set up to help tackle this further.

A Joint British Association of Day Surgery & HCUK Virtual Conference The presence of dedicated, knowledgeable, multi-skilled day surgery practitioners (the day surgery team) is essential in ensuring safe and efficient day surgery service delivery with the best patient experience. This one-day virtual conference aims to provide support for day surgery teams in achieving these goals. Good clinical practice, accompanied by explanation of underlying principles, at each stage of the day surgery pathway will be reviewed, along with discussion of when it is acceptable to question traditional practice, how the day surgery team can contribute to successful development of new day surgery pathways and inform development and innovation of multi-skilling within the day surgery process.
