In recent times, the emphasis has been on developing the market philosophy first introduced by Margaret Thatcher in 1989. As service commissioning develops, and more providers join the market, many patients find the system difficult to navigate and complain of fragmentation in the delivery of care and of new services failing to provide the high quality of care they expect. This article examines the impact on patients of a fragmented system of care, drawing on some practical examples. If person-centred care is to become a reality across the NHS then collaborative approaches to commissioning and delivering care must be developed.</p>","PeriodicalId":92635,"journal":{"name":"Future hospital journal","volume":"3 2","pages":"136-138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6465825/pdf/futurehosp-3-2-136.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37246547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we assessed junior doctors' ability to recognise and manage sepsis. We also explored junior doctors' perceptions regarding barriers to delivering timely sepsis care. From 46 respondents, only 4% were able to list the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) criteria, 50% could define sepsis and 46% could list the Sepsis Six. Following further teaching on sepsis, 35% could list the SIRS criteria, 87% correctly defined sepsis, and 91% could state the Sepsis Six. Junior doctors perceived time pressure when on call to be the greatest barrier in treating sepsis, and their own knowledge to be the least important barrier.
