The Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) arguably represents the most significant change to investigating and managing patient safety incidents in the history of the NHS. To embed PSIRF effectively within organisations, healthcare teams need to understand and utilise a range of new techniques and disciplines. Clinical audit is an established quality improvement methodology that is often overlooked by patient safety teams, but will play an increasingly important role in ensuring that PSIRF fully delivers its stated objectives.
CQC reports often highlight the importance of clinical audit as a measurement and assurance tool that can raise red flags if used appropriately. Indeed, both the Ockenden and Kirkup reports highlighted the importance of clinical audit in identifying and quantifying substandard care.
While SEIPS, After Action Reviews, more in-depth interviewing techniques, etc. are all receiving much fanfare in relation to PSIRF, the importance of clinical audit needs to be better understood. This short course will explain how organisations who use clinical audit effectively will increase patient safety and better understand why incidents take place. We will look at the key role of audit in understanding work as imagined and works as done and show why national audits can assist with creating patient safety plans. Change analysis and the effective implementation of safety actions are keys to PSIRF delivery and clinical audit will assist in the delivery of both. We will also demonstrate the important, but often under-appreciated role, clinical audit staff will have in the successful delivery of PSIRF.
Key learning outcomes:
Why clinical audit is an integral element of PSIRF.
Why clinical audit staff have a vital role to play in PSIRF.
How clinical audit data can help raise red flags and spot risks.
Using clinical audit to better understand your incidents.
Ensuring your safety actions are working.
Using audit to assess your patient safety incident investigations.

Taking place on Tuesday 10th December 2024 at the Royal College of Physicians in London, the third annual Safety For All conference provides an opportunity to hear from the nation’s leading voices in healthcare worker safety and patient safety and to network with frontline healthcare workers, unions, key decision makers in public and private healthcare, and patients.
This event is hosted by the Safer Healthcare and Biosafety Network and Patient Safety Learning as part of the Safety For All campaign. Launched in 2021, the Safety For All campaign is focused on driving improvements in and between healthcare worker safety and patient safety, highlighting how poor staff safety standards and practice impact adversely on patient safety and vice versa. It is championing the need for a systematic and integrated approach to improve safety practice for staff and patients across health and social care so that the sum is greater than the parts.
The conference will be hosted by Dr Rob Galloway, A&E Consultant at Brighton and Sussex Hospital NHS Trust, and regular columnist in the Daily Mail, and with keynote speakers including the CEO of the Royal College of Nursing, and Professor Charlotte McArdle, Deputy Chief Nursing Officer for Patient Safety and Improvement, NHS England.
