The vision of the Research and Development Strategy is to:
- Support development of high quality commissioning underpinned by research and innovation,
- Support NHS England in becoming an excellent organisation by encouraging a culture that values and promotes research and innovation
- Create an evidence based decision making culture
- Ensure research undertaken or commissioned by NHS England is patient centred
- Offer every patient the opportunity to take part in research (where practical)
- Contribute to economic growth
The strategy’s aim is to:
- promote the use of research and the use of evidence obtained from high quality research,
- support the NHS outcomes framework objectives by building the evidence base,
- identify best practice to commission research that delivers benefits for patients and their families,
- support the development of evidenced based innovative practice.
There are six objectives to be delivered by 2018; these outline how NHS England will deliver to the vision, the aim and its priorities. Each objective has an associated outcome and impact highlighted.
