Department of Health HCAI Research Network
The National HCAI Research Network. Funded by the Department of Health and hosted by Thames Valley University, the network has been created to contribute to the strategic development of the United Kingdom's national HCAI research agenda and to support and manage Department funded HCAI-related research.

 

Centre for Evidence Based Nursing and Midwifery
Supporting the enhancement of clinical practice in NHS Trusts across North-West London and Berkshire, Thames Valley University's Centre for Evidence-Based Nursing and Midwifery works with nurses and midwives from the acute and primary healthcare sectors to develop, implement and evaluate evidence to promote, support and sustain best practice. A collaborating centre of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), the role of the Centre is also to enable local clinicians to develop their skills and expertise in evidence appraisal, transfer and utilisation. The Centre has a particular focus on priority areas related to infection prevention and control, management of HIV/AIDS, wound care, management of lymphoedema, midwifery and women's health and infant feeding.
