Collaboration on Reviewing Existing SACT Protocols

Dear BOPA Members,

As you may be aware, the National SACT Protocol Project is due to commence shortly in collaboration with the UK SACT Board and the Pharmaceutical Press. The initial phase of this project will focus on developing new SACT protocols.

Several Trusts have contacted me asking about plans for existing protocols.

To help coordinate efforts, I would like to identify organisations that are currently reviewing their existing protocols — or planning to start in the next 6 months — in line with the UK SACT Board guidelines. My aim is to link up these organisations so we can facilitate collaboration, share learning, and reduce duplication of work across trusts.

If this is an area your organisation is focusing on, please email me at [email protected].

Kind Regards

Netty
