Video transcript: People who change the world - Professor Charlotte Summers
00:00:00:10 - 00:00:02:13
When the Covid pandemic began,
00:00:02:13 - 00:00:03:21
I knew that science
00:00:03:21 - 00:00:06:21
was the only escape route to normal life.
00:00:07:02 - 00:00:08:06
My name is Dr.
00:00:08:06 - 00:00:09:12
Charlotte Summers.
00:00:09:12 - 00:00:11:12
I'm an intensive care doctor
00:00:11:12 - 00:00:12:08
and researcher
00:00:12:08 - 00:00:13:20
at the University of ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½
00:00:13:20 - 00:00:15:19
and Addenbrooke’s Hospital.
00:00:15:19 - 00:00:18:09
Faced with a new and deadly virus,
00:00:18:09 - 00:00:19:02
the team here
00:00:19:02 - 00:00:19:09
worked
00:00:19:09 - 00:00:21:06
round the clock to create
00:00:21:06 - 00:00:22:20
new intensive care beds
00:00:22:20 - 00:00:24:11
and to work out how to deal
00:00:24:11 - 00:00:26:03
with the very sickest of patients
00:00:26:03 - 00:00:27:13
with Covid.
00:00:27:13 - 00:00:28:17
Alongside this,
00:00:28:17 - 00:00:30:03
we kickstarted research
00:00:30:03 - 00:00:31:19
to understand the virus
00:00:31:19 - 00:00:32:10
and develop
00:00:32:10 - 00:00:35:22
new tests, therapies and vaccines.
00:00:35:24 - 00:00:37:02
It really helps bring
00:00:37:02 - 00:00:37:20
both the doctor
00:00:37:20 - 00:00:39:13
and a scientist,
00:00:39:13 - 00:00:41:23
understanding problems at the bedside
00:00:41:23 - 00:00:43:06
means that we can accelerate
00:00:43:06 - 00:00:44:16
research into problems
00:00:44:16 - 00:00:46:07
that really matter.
00:00:46:07 - 00:00:46:21
It also
00:00:46:21 - 00:00:48:03
means that we can rapidly
00:00:48:03 - 00:00:49:08
translate discoveries
00:00:49:08 - 00:00:51:23
into new therapies for patients.
00:00:51:23 - 00:00:54:06
We could never find treatments for Covid
00:00:54:06 - 00:00:55:16
without patients being willing
00:00:55:16 - 00:00:58:18
to take part in clinical trials.
00:00:58:20 - 00:01:00:09
Every patient with Covid
00:01:00:09 - 00:01:00:23
admitted to
00:01:00:23 - 00:01:01:17
Addenbrooke's
00:01:01:17 - 00:01:03:02
is offered the opportunity
00:01:03:02 - 00:01:04:20
to take part in research,
00:01:04:20 - 00:01:07:14
and we're deeply grateful to all of them.
00:01:07:14 - 00:01:09:20
We have witnessed the power of science
00:01:09:20 - 00:01:11:12
in finding new treatments
00:01:11:12 - 00:01:13:05
and vaccines for Covid,
00:01:13:05 - 00:01:15:11
but we still need to find more treatments
00:01:15:11 - 00:01:16:17
to save lives
00:01:16:17 - 00:01:17:13
and stop people
00:01:17:13 - 00:01:18:15
getting so unwell
00:01:18:15 - 00:01:20:20
that they require intensive care.
00:01:20:20 - 00:01:21:06
Doing
00:01:21:06 - 00:01:23:19
this will require more superhuman efforts
00:01:23:19 - 00:01:25:18
from clinicians and scientists
00:01:25:18 - 00:01:27:06
who have already gone above
00:01:27:06 - 00:01:29:07
and beyond during the pandemic.
00:01:29:07 - 00:01:31:22
But treatments for Covid are out there
00:01:31:22 - 00:01:33:03
and working together
00:01:33:03 - 00:01:34:21
locally, nationally
00:01:34:21 - 00:01:37:10
and internationally, we will find them.

Video transcript: Safe patient flow during winter
0:04
During winter we experience increasing
0:07
pressure on our Hospital
0:09
Services there are things we can all do
0:12
to help improve patient flow and meet
0:14
our 4-Hour Emergency Care standard when
0:18
we are under
0:20
pressure taking some important steps
0:23
ensures we can see and treat patients
0:26
quickly and safely whilst improving
0:29
their experience
0:31
take Joyce for example she arrived in Ed
0:34
by ambulance with her son after
0:37
experiencing chest pains and
0:39
breathlessness at home within 30 minutes
0:43
of arriving she's brought to a cubicle
0:46
and the ambulance is quickly back on the
0:49
road to other patients Joyce is seen by
0:53
the rapid assessment and triage team
0:56
rules out a heart attack and request a
0:59
consult consultant physician to
1:02
assess Dr Kuma arrives within 1 hour in
1:06
line with our internal Professional
1:08
Standards suspecting Joyce has pneumonia
1:12
blood tests are ordered and she is
1:14
allocated as space in
1:16
ea3 one of the medical assessment and
1:20
same day Emergency Care
1:22
units Joy's son is with her throughout
1:27
and the Ed team and Dr Kumar keeps them
1:30
both informed about her
1:33
care once moved Joyce cubicle is free
1:37
for another patient waiting in
1:40
Ed all of this takes less than 4 hours
1:44
meeting our Emergency Care standard and
1:47
supporting other emergency patients to
1:50
be seen and triage quickly Joyce is
1:54
assessed for the rest of the day her
1:57
blood test confirm she has pneumonia and
2:01
needs intravenous antibiotics and
2:04
supplementary oxygen so she is
2:07
transferred to a ward the MDT assess and
2:11
monitor Joy's progress for the next two
2:14
days and the ward keeps Joyce and her
2:17
son
2:18
updated they all plan support for when
2:22
she goes home Joyce is out of bed on her
2:25
first day on the board which helps her
2:28
recovery
2:30
on her second day the MDT assess she is
2:34
ready for discharge the ward team
2:37
contact her son and he arrives promptly
2:40
by 10 a.m. if he had been late Joyce
2:43
could have been moved to the discharge
2:46
lounge, freeing up her bed for another
2:50
patient Joyce is discharged with two
2:53
more days of antibiotics, Joyce and her
2:56
son are happy with their experience of
2:58
care in our Hospital
3:00
they have been kept in form all along
3:03
the way and Joy's Journey has been
3:05
smooth and efficient by everyone doing
3:08
the right things at the right time there
3:11
have been no delays in Joy Journey from
3:14
Ed to discharge we have freed up
3:17
capacity along the way and met our
3:20
4-Hour Emergency Care
3:22
standards we all have a part to play in
3:26
helping flow throughout our hospitals
3:29
and meeting our 4-Hour Emergency Care
3:32
standard that includes looking out for
3:35
one another too together we can continue
3:38
to provide safe and effective care this winter

So there are multiple challenges facing our emergency department.
0:04
There are people who come to our emergency department
0:06
who can be seen elsewhere in our health care system.
0:10
They can call 111, during in hours
0:14
they should be calling their GPs.
0:16
The reason why it's important people call
0:19
other parts, are that we have a big challenge of people
0:22
who are waiting to be admitted into the hospital.
0:25
The biggest thing the public can do to help our emergency department
0:29
is to access other services which are available to them.
0:33
For example, NHS 111,
0:36
GP out of hours as well as in hours,
0:40
and minor injury units in Ely and urgent treatment centres.

Hello.
0:04
My name is Gladys Chitakatira and I am from Zimbabwe.
0:08
I joined the ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ as a public member
0:13
from a minority background.
0:16
I believe I have something to share
0:20
with the public and the ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ University hospitals
0:24
to ensure that as a minority we are not overlooked.
0:29
We are head and we are well represented.
0:32
Hi, I'm Randall Evans.
0:34
I'm a patient member of the Trust and when I retired, I got more time to get
0:38
involved with activities in the community and at the local hospital.
0:42
Becoming a public member of the ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½ University Hospital.
0:47
Has given me a voice
0:50
and opportunities to participate in quality improvements
0:55
in line with patient safety staff and the wider community
1:00
population. Trust membership gives you the opportunity
1:04
to get involved as much or as little as you wish.
1:07
I'm currently involved in reviewing patient information leaflets,
1:11
the place inspections of the wards, which looks at the comfort and cleanliness
1:15
factors, and attending the medicine for numbers lectures
1:18
which tell me about innovative research at the hospital.
1:22
Hi, I'm Neil Stutchbury.
1:23
I'm a patient governor and the lead governor
1:26
we governors are elected by members
1:28
and our role is to represent you and ensure
1:31
your hospital is doing the right thing for all its patients.
1:35
I decided to become a governor after finishing full time work.
1:40
At that time I was diagnosed and treated for cancer at Addenbrooke's.
1:44
I wanted to help other patients by giving them a voice
1:47
in the treatment and services they get from the hospital.
1:51
But we provide the direct link between the community
1:54
and those that run the hospital.
1:57
We represent the interests of patients
1:59
and the wider public and the development of the trust.
2:03
And through that we then hold the non-executive directors
2:07
to account the performance of the hospital as a whole.
2:11
Hello, I'm Mike Moore.
2:12
I'm chair of ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½.
2:15
Our hospitals are very well known.
2:18
They are also very, very big, but at its core.
2:21
And what guides me is are we providing safe, patient care?
2:25
And are we providing a good hospital for our local communities.
2:29
And that's why the membership of the trust is so important,
2:32
because it's a voice for our local community.
2:35
It's a voice for our staff, and it's a voice for patients.
2:39
It's members of the public.
2:41
The voice of the membership is really important
2:44
in keeping us clear and true to our mission.
2:47
Providing safe, patient care and your voice matters.
2:51
Your voice is heard.
2:53
From age of 16 and above.
2:55
It's possible to become a member.
2:58
Do become a member.
2:59
Get involved in making the hospital
3:01
the best it can be for all its patients and its users.
3:05
Together we can make a difference.
3:08
So I hope you'll feel able to join in.
3:10
Get involved and become part of your ÃÛÌÒµ¼º½.

Hi i'm Kyle, and I'm a teenage cancer
0:02
Trust Youth Support Coordinator.
0:04
What I've learned about this role that
0:06
makes it different is the fact that I'm
0:08
not medical,
0:09
and that's really special at times
0:11
because I've got the freedom just to sit
0:13
and to be and to talk and to offer what
0:15
I call the gift of time to people
0:17
in terms of how I support young people
0:19
emotionally,
0:20
the main thing is just being able to
0:22
answer some of their questions. I can't
0:25
answer all questions and I don't pretend
0:26
to be able to answer all questions,
0:28
being able to listen to them and then do
0:31
my best to find out
0:32
the answers or to work through the
0:34
answers with them so they discover them
0:36
for themselves.
0:37
In terms of the whole family and the
0:38
support that we provide for them as well
0:41
we also do group work we also do
0:43
one-on-one sort of
0:44
talks with them we have counsellors
0:46
available from our team
0:48
but I also become a bit of an events
0:50
coordinator sometimes and we organise
0:52
spa days for mums and
0:53
trips out for dads, and just special
0:56
wishes for families as a whole as well
0:57
so they can really spend some quality
0:59
time with each other.
1:00
And it's really fun to be able to watch
1:01
that play out.
1:03
in terms of group activities and we have
1:05
quite regular activities
1:07
like we do a breakfast brunch club every
1:09
Tuesday morning which is great,
1:10
we have pastries and we have food and we
1:13
put some TV on,
1:14
and have a laugh. But we do have more
1:16
focused group events like post-treatment
1:18
groups
1:18
and during those events we try and work
1:21
with the young people
1:22
through various different issues, late
1:24
effects, side effects,
1:26
but mainly just trying to draw them out
1:29
of cancer land, and
1:30
give them reasons why they can move
1:32
forward and have positive outlook on
1:33
their life.
