Structure of the project

There are 3 key parts to this assignment which are described in detail below:

(1)Executive Summary: (250 words)
This should provide a brief summary of all aspects of your project proposal and should make sense if read separately to the rest of your project plan.

·    Background to the project to include:

Setting up a robotic surgery course for surgical trainees

Rationale,   Your professional role thoracic surgeon area and context of practice, interest in the topic area – robotic surgery new sophisticated technology with better patient outcomes then conventional surgery;
Current healthcare provision locally in relation to your topic none and course offered via industry players and not very clinically oriented Identification of deficiencies in current service provision – – largest centre offering robotics to patients in europe however paucity in training and at present surgeons train abroad

Drivers   What is the local/national situation with regards to your project topic?
Future of surgery commission report, surgeons will need training in robotic surgery as part of curriculum
What are the financial implications/service implications for your topic? Reduction in hospital stay therefore reduced bed occupancy and cost
What are the anticipated benefits of this project?
Specify project objectives and expected outcomes (measurable deliverables).

These should be as short, medium and long-term. Number the points including broad steps that you will need to undertake to complete the project
2.2
Identifying strengths and weaknesses: Select a recognised business/project analysis tool, e.g. SWOT or PEST(LE). ·    Briefly discuss the reasons for your choice and also how this process will inform your project plan.
11·    Illustrate your analysis using a table and bullet points.
·    Complete this section with a brief statement of the key issues that this exercise has highlighted and that would be useful for you to consider when planning the rest of the project.
