This virtual conference will focus on reducing restrictive interventions in line with national guidance and ensuring adherence to the National NICE Quality Standard on Violence and Aggression. This focus on reducing restrictive practice is particularly important in light of COVID-19 where mental health services have reported spikes in incidents of physical restraint or seclusion on patients, driven by covid-19 restrictions (HSJ 5th June 2020).

The NHS is the world’s first health organisation to publish data on avoidable deaths. The National Guidance on Learning from Deaths has driven a strengthening of systems of mortality case review with emphasis on learning. By collecting the data and taking action in response to failings in care, trusts will be able to give an open and honest account of the circumstances leading to a death. This National Conference focuses on improving the investigation and learning from deaths in NHS Trusts following the National CQC and NQB guidance, and Department of Health reporting requirements. The conference will also discuss the role of Medical Examiners providing a national system of medical examiners will be introduced to provide much-needed support for bereaved families and patient safety.

Get involved in co-producing the Royal College of Midwives (RCM) Maternity Voices Network. Share ideas and to help shape what the network will look like.
About this Event
The RCM are currently working to co-produce the RCM Maternity Voices Network. This will provide an opportunity to improve the experiences and outcomes for all involved in maternity services by bringing together service users, midwives, maternity support workers and student midwives to support and influence the RCM in all areas of its work to further align the needs of our members and those of the women and families they work with across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
Hear about the Royal College of Midwives and what they do. You'll hear presentations from National Maternity Voices, NHSE, RCOG Women’s Network and the UCL Coproduction Collective sharing examples about other maternity voice networks and about co-production more generally. The RCM invite you to present a ‘Quick Fire Idea’ … These will be 3 minute slots where anyone can share an idea about how the RCM Maternity Voices Network could work, ideas for projects, or ways people could be involved (limited slots available bookable in advance). Small break-out rooms to begin co-creating a vision for the RCM Maternity Voices network. Explore how it could work(the structure/members/communication), what it could do (ideas for activities members could be involved in), Quick Fire Ideas (a chance to discuss the ideas presented).

The importance of healthcare data and good data practices continues to grow as the COVID-19 pandemic drives further digitalisation and creates new data streams. This free online event from the King's Fund explores the importance of patients trusting that their health and care data will be safely and responsibly used by the NHS. Now is the time to come together and look at how we can modernise protocols and ensure trust is built with the public.
This event is the first in a series exploring how we put trust, transparency and fair value at the centre of digital health and care. Our expert panel will discuss what public institutions, industry and decision-makers that hold, control and use our most personal data are doing to help to maintain and improve trust in England while simultaneously modernising best practice.

Digitising the management of wound care provides accurate and accessible data to nurses and clinicians while also enabling remote assessment of wounds. The COVID-19 pandemic is front and centre of all current healthcare priorities – and rightly so. Yet, we must not, nor should not, overlook the need for other forms of healthcare provision – which have by no means abated.
Take the management of wound care. It is estimated that 2.2 million people in the UK live with non-healing, chronic wounds – those wounds which do not respond to treatment and therefore do not heal. They can last for months or even years, costing the NHS around £5 billion a year.
COVID-19 risks exacerbating the issue as the same populations who have been identified as at-risk of developing complications from the pandemic, such as older people and people with diabetes, are exactly those that are also at risk for developing chronic wounds. At a time when demand on the healthcare system is more pressured than ever, it is even more critical to ensure NHS providers have access to the tools they need to deliver quality care, making it easier to protect patients.
This webinar, part of the Improving Patient Safety & Care Webinar Series, will discuss how harnessing technology can make routine monitoring digital and how digital wound care services can save time, reduce administrative burdens and helps NHS staff assess patients earlier.
