About our shared learning examples

Our shared learning examples show how NICE guidance and standards have been put into practice by a range of health, local government and social care organisations.

Each example must:

  • hghlight learning that could be useful to others
  • be written in easy to understand English, free from jargon
  • have clear objectives, including an explanation of what was happening before the project, why it was needed and how it was implemented
  • outline any barriers the organisation faced when implementing the project and the methods used to overcome these
  • outline the effect the change had on service performance and outcomes through an evaluation process
  • declare any third party sponsorship.

Examples were written by the submitting organisation and should not be interpreted as our formal endorsement of the approach taken.
