Unity is strength in joint research project.
The advent of the purchaser/provider split produced a number of challenges for a coordinated approach to supporting research. This article describes a collaboration between North Derbyshire Health Commission and Chesterfield and North Derbyshire Royal Hospital NHS Trust in bringing together purchaser and provider. A research interest group spanning purchaser and provider organisations has been responsible for a number of initiatives including training days, a research database and a resource pack for would-be researchers which aim to raise the profile of research across North Derbyshire.
