The Covid-19 pandemic has laid bare deep-seated health inequalities and the issue is now at the forefront of the minds of people across the health and care system, as they seek to develop strategies aimed at reducing health inequalities at a regional, integrated care system (ICS) and place level.
This conference will bring together individuals and teams developing health inequalities strategies. We will discuss the need for universal action at a population health level and targeted action to address issues affecting people facing the worst health outcomes, showing how these two approaches interlink.
The conference will also explore opportunities across health and care to tackle health inequalities and learn from local and international leaders about how they are overcoming the challenges of turning evidence into action to make a difference to health inequalities.

This national conference looks at the practicalities of serious incident investigation and learning from deaths in mental health services and implementation of the New Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (previously known as the Serious Incident Framework). The Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) was published on 16th August 2022 and replaces the Serious Incident Framework. The conference will also update delegates on best current practice in serious incident investigation and learning, including mortality governance and learning from deaths. There will be an extended focus on ensuring serious investigation findings lead to change and improvement, and updates from PSIRF early adopter sites in mental health. The conference will also examine how the new framework will fit with the Royal College of Psychiatrists Care Review Tool for mortality review.
The conference is particularly timely considering the current Essex Mental Health Independent Inquiry which has National Implications.

West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust Quality Governance team is hosting a series of Patient Safety Learning Summits. Throughout the year they will be holding four events, focusing on patient safety, with a range of speakers (national and international).
WHO are the summits aimed for? All healthcare professionals and students who want to learn more about patient safety, participate in the construction of our new patient safety strategy and gain valuable CPD points (30!).
WHAT are the summits? They will be international interactive learning conferences where we delve into the transition into Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF), in conjunction with discussing the wider patient safety landscape. These summits will include national and international keynote speakers:
Prof Matt Inada-Kim- National Clinical Director – infection, antimicrobial resistance & deterioration / CL Covid oximetry @Home / virtual wards Ron Daniels- Founder and Chief Executive, UK Sepsis Trust Helen Hughes- Chief Executive, Patient Safety Learning Paula Reges – infections disease researcher Fiocruz Brazil / advisor to Health Minister Ass Prof Caline Mattar- Global Health and Infectious Diseases at University of Washington, USA Other speakers to include: Médecins Sans Frontières, Red Cross and NHS England WHEN are the summits? There will be four summits throughout the year with overarching themes:
Wednesday 26 April- Corporate and Clinical Governance Tuesday 6 June- IPC/AMR/Stewardship Tuesday 5 September – Deteriorating Patients- event aligned to the WHO theme of Engaging Patients Wednesday 10 January 2024- Enhanced Care Needs WHERE are the summits? The events will be held at Watford Football Club and streamed online. British Sign Language interpreters, inductions loops and captions will be present at all events.
WHY The trust fully supports the national agenda change to PSIRF and wants to embed the ethos of this framework into everything we do. Patient safety is everybody's business, and everyone has a vital role to play. PSIRF is replacing the Serious Incident Framework and will lead to a culture shift of continuous learning, patient engagement, and a systems-based approach to learning from incidents. The NHS patient safety landscape is evolving, and these summits will give you the understanding, oversight, and passion to be a driver for improvements within your area.

This webinar shares the findings of a co-production project in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board (ICB) to remove barriers to shared decision making.
The partners in the project were the ICB’s Personalised Care Team, the My Life Choices lived experience panel, the Patient Information Forum (PIF), and us, the Patients Association. The project was one we highlighted during Patient Partnership Week last year; you can learn more about it before attending this webinar by watching the recording of the Partnering with patients and communities - what's happening in ICSs session.
Over the course of six co-production meetings, we developed simple resources to support patients and professionals to have better shared decision making conversations. This webinar shares the findings of the project.
Speakers will discuss practical solutions to help patients and professionals get the most from limited appointment times which can be applied nationally.
