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. Register

Speaker: Professor Ian Leistikow; Adviser at the Dutch Health & Youth Care Inspectorate and Professor at Erasmus School of Health Policy & Management, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands
Challenges that health and care faces, translate to challenges for the regulatory authorities. Classic regulatory strategies aimed at compliance increasingly fall short in contributing to quality of (health)care.
In this webinar Ian will use the model of ‘value driven regulation’ to show how the Dutch Inspectorate strives to keep up with the dynamics of the sectors it regulates, by keeping its eye on creating societal value. Ian will also give an overview of the broad range of scientific research projects within the Inspectorate aimed at improving the positive impact of its regulation.

This event began 07/03/24 and repeats every week on Thursday until 14/03/24
On this programme you will learn the benefits of taking an approach to measurement, focused specifically on improvement. You’ll discover a range of techniques to understand variation and measure change.
This programme comprises of two modules, with an opportunity at the end to discuss your own measurement project.
Our fast measurement start-up. You’ll learn about the different types of variation. You’ll be able to produce a Statistical Process Control (SPC) chart and understand what it’s telling you. In this session you will explore measurement in more depth, such as advanced SPC charts and confidence intervals, to help you dig into your data and turn it into intelligence you can act upon. Who is this for?
Individuals who want to discover a range of techniques to understand variation and measure change.
