I was lead person in NHS Scotland tasked with forging relationships with NHS England and other home nations and international stakeholders to seek out mutual and beneficial understanding for complimentary approaches to introducing SNOMED Clinical Terms (SCT’s). I worked to identify, test and procure tools (Health language) to support better understanding of SCT’s and responsible for costing and negotiating contracts to support these tools through the procurement of Managed Technical Services (MTS) from ATOS Alliance and training days from Health Language. I created training materials and led stakeholder workshops to communicate SCT's and the supporting products. I also attended international conferences to better understand the success and challenges faced by other countries trying to introduce SCT's, making recommendation to NHS Scotland on how to progress implementation of it. I set-up up the appropriate governance groups to consider my recommendations and was responsible for cascading knowledge and expert advice to the NHS Scotland Terminology Service, NHS Territorial Boards and the S.G.H.D.

I project managing all aspects of the first ever National Allied Health Professional (AHP) census, to capture and support collection and analysis of activity & workload information for AHP's. A census of this kind had never been undertaken before in NHS Scotland at that time. The work was at the cutting edge in terms of use of I.T for the organisation at the time. I had to liaise with all of the sub-teams involved, the 14 Health Boards, AHP Clinical leads, NHS Board I.T leads and depts, 9 AHP professional groups, NCDDP development teams, Scottish Executive and their respective professional bodies. Throughout this multi staged project, I was able to provide clear and decisive leadership for the project, explaining complex requirements in a straightforward and logical manner which ultimately resulted in 5995 AHP’s participating (80%) and 39,877 cases being captured on the 14th Sept 2005.
