ARK schedule of enrolment, interventions, and assessments (SPIRIT figure). * Healthcare organisations are recruited to the study before enrolment but at varying calendar times, based on the fact that they can provide historical patient electronic healthcare record data pre-implementation. They are allocated an implementation date based on the stepped-wedge design. ** Follow-up finishes 12 months after the last randomised organisation implements the intervention, estimated June 2020. † There are no formal assessments. Outcomes are assessed using routinely collected electronic health records from patients admitted to acute/general medicine over the entire study period, pooled periodically during the trial
