Abstract

Originally launched in 2015, the Getting It Right First Time (GIRFT) programme has become a leading authority for quality improvement in the NHS. In September 2021, the programme published an impressive series of reviews in no fewer than 18 subject areas, neurology being one of these. While earlier GIRFT reports tended to focus on acute care, the new reports have a much wider scope and scan a whole pathway approach for unwarranted variations in practice and what needs to happen to improve patient outcomes. In Part 1, Sue Thomas explores what GIRFT says about the organisation of neurological services and recommendations for service delivery, while Part 2 will explore parallel services, commissioning and future directions.
