Introduction
This toolkit has been put together in an attempt to provide colleagues with a set of documents, tools,
links and information to support the review and delivery of an Integrated MSK Pathway which has
been under development by colleagues across South Central from October 2009.

MSK Pathway Toolkit
Creatively building a great MSK Pathway Background
•On 8th October 2009, NHS South Central SHA organised a day for all clinical and non clinical staff to come together and look at what a future MSK service could look like. The types of people at the meeting were:-
•GPs, Physiotherapists, T&O nursing staff, consultants in orthopaedics, rheumatology, radiologist & pain management, patient representation, acute and primary care managers.
•The first part of the day was spent encouraging everyone in the room to think creatively about what a future MSK service might look like. Each small group created their own vision for the future, what it should feel like for the people going through the pathway and how it should feel for those who work within the service.
•The output from this session was to create a gallery of ideas and from this, common themes were pulled together.
•During the following 18 month work has continued to define, develop and implement the pathway at a local level ensuring particular attention is made the agreed principles:-Sickness prevention & health promotion emphasised at each point of contact by all health professionals.Use of informed decision making with patients at each point of the pathway.Patient agreed outcome measures at each stage.

South Central MSK Pathway
GW/RW 23.11.2010
The pathway was developed by clinical and managerial colleagues across SC drawing on best practice, experience and emerging thinking. The contents are set out specifically in an order that is considered most logical and beneficial, and a number of the aspects have been developed, tested and then refined in light of use. The contents also include information on Falls & Fragility Fractures, although not part of the pathway the information has been included for consideration if required. Colleagues are urged to undertake an in-depth review of their current service before embarking on plans for significant changes or the commissioning of new services. The various contents of the toolkit have been utilised or are in place in different locations across SC. Under the contents list are identified those PCTs/named clinical colleagues who can provide further information due to application in that area.
