Abstract

Enhanced recovery (ER) is one of the current buzz terms in the health service but it seems to mean a different thing depending on to whom you speak. The Department of Health (DH) invited applications from acute trusts across England to become 'innovation sites' for the enhanced recovery programme. These sites are supported by DH as they implement a defined programme that aims to improve patient experience through shorter hospital stays. The Bulletin spent a day at one of them, West Hertfordshire Hospitals NHS Trust, to witness the changes made.
