Health research: the best kept secret in the NHS

An increasing number of hospitals – from teaching hospitals to district general hospitals – are beginning to tackle this agenda with gusto. Some have bold visions to ensure that every one of their patients is offered the opportunity to take part in a clinical trial. Others such as Salford, Liverpool Heart and Chest, and Maidstone are recruiting patient research ambassadors.

Patients and the public, many of them volunteers, are to be the face of research in their local hospital and to work with their research and development (R&D) offices to help manage study recruitment.
