The Role of the Day Surgery Team - BADS conference
MONDAY 3rd NOVEMBER 2025 - VIRTUAL, Online
The presence of dedicated, knowledgeable, multi-skilled day surgery practitioners (the day surgery team) is essential in ensuring safe and efficient day surgery service delivery with the best patient experience. This one-day virtual conference aims to provide support for day surgery teams in achieving these goals. Good clinical practice, accompanied by explanation of underlying principles, at each stage of the day surgery pathway will be reviewed, along with discussion of when it is acceptable to question traditional practice, how the day surgery team can contribute to successful development of new day surgery pathways and inform development and innovation of multi-skilling within the day surgery process.

Day Case Emergency General Surgery - BADS conference
THURSDAY 4th DECEMBER 2025 - VIRTUAL, Online
A Joint British Association of Day Surgery & HCUK Virtual Conference
The UK has a strong international reputation for excellence in day surgery, driven by several factors including high quality research, an emphasis on efficient use of NHS resources and not least, dynamic clinical leaders, examples of which we will be hearing from today.
The rationale for effective elective day surgery is well understood and whilst work continues to improve care in this area, the provision of day case/ambulatory emergency & urgent surgical care has been a recent focus of research and healthcare reform. Outcomes in emergency surgery are poor compared to other countries and compared to elective surgical patients. We can and should be offering high-quality, efficient ambulatory emergency surgery pathways, utilising the best technology available, for the benefit of our patients and making the best use of our valuable and limited healthcare resources. The NHS 10-year plan has recognised the importance of providing treatment for patients outside of the hospital environment and ambulatory care for patients with acute surgical pathology can play an important part in this. Likewise, the NHS vision for a move from analogue to digital technology has significant potential to improve the care of emergency surgical patients through ambulatory pathways.
