The national report for SAMBA23 is now available at acutemedicine.org.uk/blog/20…
Performance of acute medicine services against clinical quality indicators remains lower than 2019-2021, showing a need to understand how we can improve our services under current pressures
With thanks to all units taking part in SAMBA23 - SAMBA would not be possible without acute medicine teams working hard to collect the data for their patients in Emergency Departments, AMUs and SDEC services

We are very pleased to share the results of our winter SAMBA survey from Jan 2020 to start answering these questions rdcu.be/cEd89 @acutemedicine

Once again a massive thank you to all the teams that took part - your loal reports are still available through the database - please download these to use locally!
What does SAMBA2021 tell us...
1) Acute medicine service performance is similar to SAMBA19 in June 2019 - a massive positive considering the pressure that all our services have been under (and still are) and the amount of reorganisation that some centres have been through in these last 18 months @acutemedicine
