In 2000, Hockey was appointed as consultant physician and reorganized the provision of care for patients in Southampton with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease working with a private sector provider to deliver intensive home care. More recently he was clinical lead for a unique whole-hospital scheme in the New Forest whereby a private sector provider was appointed to provide non-elective care to NHS patients. He is closely involved with the Wessex Institute in delivering a leadership and service improvement program to medical trainees and serves as an advisor to NHS London on the impact of new European Union legislation on healthcare in the U.K. He has published in journals such as the European Respiratory Journal, Journal of Applied Physiology, and Respiratory Research. Hockey holds a bachelor's of Medicine and Surgery from the University of the Witwatersand, Johannesburg, and a doctorate of medicine from the University of Southampton in 2003, and he recently completed the Harvard Business School Extensive Education Program in Health Care Delivery.

 

Project: Peter Hockey explored the views of frontline physicians as to what they perceived were key determinants of quality in their organizations, with a particular focus on the roles of physician engagement and organizational attributes.  He conducted interviews with frontline physicians working in five different hospitals with high and low quality outcomes on their views about quality and important attributes in delivering high quality care.
