Through regulation and governance, we deliver the latest evidence-based treatments in a safe and high-quality environment.
At GenesisCare, through regulation and governance, we deliver the latest evidence- based treatments in a safe and high-quality environment.
Our Clinical Governance Committee sets safe and effective treatment protocols, reviews pathways, manages risk and works with the CQC. All consultant practising privileges are reviewed and continuously validated by our Medical Advisory Committee. Cases outside standard protocol are referred to our Clinical Advisory Team to peer review and recommend the best treatment plan.
Our Clinical Leaders Forum consists of leading practitioners in all fields of oncology working with GenesisCare to spearhead best practice and innovations, and expand our referral network.
Our Clinical Reference Groups specialising in breast, prostate, SABR and haematology oversee the continuous process of clinical evaluation, using peer-group collaboration and data-driven insights to design and implement standardised treatment protocols across our centres.
We are committed to an environment of clinical excellence, objectivity and accountability. Our SABR service is spearheaded by the SABR Reference Group – an advisory team of leading NHS clinicians who have been recruited due to their clinical expertise, each with a high volume of SABR cases performed, in order to form the UK’s leading SABR consortium.
The role of the SABR Reference Group is to provide the necessary clinical oversight for a safe and effective SABR service across the GenesisCare network. This includes improved access to SABR treatments, introducing new clinicians to the SABR network, overseeing training and competency frameworks and contributing to the evidence base. In addition, they drive the implementation of existing and emerging radiation technologies, in particular the MRIdian for MR-guided SABR, with responsibility for the treatment network as well as academic collaboration with the University of Oxford.
Group members also comprise the SABR Advisory Team (SAT) who lead the multidisciplinary teams and assess all referrals through the eMDT.
