Things can and do go wrong in health and social care. There is an expectation that when things do go wrong, HSC organisations treat those affected with respect, compassion and honesty. That they help members of the public understand what happened and they demonstrate that they have learned from the incident, to reduce the risk of it happening again.
Recommendations arising from a number of Inquiries and Reviews have contributed to a clear and strong evidence base underpinning the need to redesign the current approach to learning following Adverse Incidents and SAIs. The Department of Health is therefore holding a public consultation on the redesign of the current Serious Adverse Incident (SAI) procedure in Northern Ireland. The SAI review process is intended to play an important role in securing improvements in the quality and safety of health and social care (HSC) services by ensuring that incidents are identified, reported and investigated as appropriate so that learning can be shared across the HSC system.
Some of the key aims of the new draft Framework include:
Providing a more streamlined and simplified process for reviewing Patient Safety Incidents, to ensure reviews are of a high quality; Place all those affected at the heart of the process; Focus on understanding how and why a Patient Safety Incident has occurred to identify system-wide learning leading to demonstrable and sustainable improvements in care. The proposed framework for Learning and Improvement from Patient Safety Incidents will form a key part of the HSC’s patient safety system and it is therefore crucially important that it is the right approach.
The Department of Health would therefore like to hear directly from the public on these important proposals.
The PCC is facilitating an online consultation event, to be led by Department of Health officials, on Thursday 15 May 2025, at 17:30. This event will also assist those intending to make a written response to the consultation.

Investigating incidents and accidents is crucial for safety management in high-risk industries. While it is just one component of safety management, it is an essential one. Thoughtful incident analysis promotes learning, enhances safety, and fosters a proactive safety culture.
The London Protocol is a method for analysing healthcare incidents, revealing the strengths and weaknesses of the healthcare system. By closely examining a single patient’s journey, valuable insights about the broader system can be gained. Originally published in 2004, it has been widely used around the world.
Find out more about the updated 2024 version of the London Protocol
In this workshop, you will learn about the updated London Protocol 2024, which has been refined for today’s healthcare landscape. We will cover its history, theoretical background, and our approach to learning from clinical incidents and patient experiences.
We will focus on engaging patients and families and supporting everyone affected by incidents. Additionally, we will discuss the importance of fewer, more thorough investigations to drive broader improvement initiatives.
There will be opportunities for questions and open discussions on any topics raised.
