Manual of Cancer Services 2004 - 2007
The first Manual of Cancer Services was published by the Department of Health website at the beginning of July 2004.
Using relatively new technology, the Mayden Team converted the draft manual from MS Word into XML format. This allowed rapid
numbering and cross-referencing of the measures and the ability to make changes at short notice right up to the time of publication.
The XML file also facilitates the presentation of the Manual in a variety of both electronic and printed formats (eg PDF, CSV) and
directly feeds into the CQuINS on-line library of measures and the self assessment records. The manual is continually being updated as new measures are developed. |

The Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme was launched by the Department of Health in 2006. The programme
seeks to deliver on the Government's 2005 General Election manifesto commitment to provide improved access to psychological therapies for people who
require the help of mental health services. It also responds to service user's requests for more personalised services based around their individuals
needs and will test the effectiveness of providing increases in evidence based psychological therapy services to people with 'common' mental health
problems such as anxiety and depression. Mayden Health is working with the national demonstration site at Newham to develop an innovative web-based
information system to support psychotherapists in the day-to-day management of patients and to provide intelligent analysis of the resulting data. |

www.londonqarc.nhs.uk
The London Quality Assurance Reference Centre web site is a complete database driven site with no static pages. This
allows the data on the site to be fully integrated so that related information such as diary dates,
meetings, documents, links, news, job vacancies etc can all be pulled together onto a single web page if
required. The London QARC site is probably the most integrated on-line content management system being used in the NHS today but the
infrastructure can be replicated and used for any other organisation for only a fraction of the cost of
developing a new site. |

Healthy Curiosity
Currently under development, the Healthy Curiosity site will allow people suffering from a range of chronic conditions to monitor
the progress of their disease and to exchange experiences of different lifestyle changes (eg diet, exercise etc) and treatments
(including drug regimes). By developing a "bank" of data from individuals, the Healthy Curiosity site will build into an invaluable
repository of collective experience which other sufferers can use to support their own decisions about managing their disease. |
