After Action Reviews with patients: From principle to practice

This workshop runs over TWO dates.

  • Part 1: Tuesday 3rd November 9.30 to 13.00

  • Part 2: Wednesday 11th November 9.30 to 13.00

One ticket covers both sessions.

Help develop the foundations, behaviours, and systems needed for effective patient and family involvement in the most frequently used of the PSIRF Learning Response Tools, After Action Review.

This is a practical, interactive workshop for healthcare staff with existing AAR knowledge, who want to build confidence and consistency in involving patients and families. Across two half-day online workshops, and a structured audit to be undertaken between the two, participants will learn how to set AARs up for success, create psychologically safe conditions, manage challenges in real time, and support patients and staff after the review. The programme focuses on embedding meaningful patient involvement as part of everyday PSIRF learning.

Suitable for:

People who lead AARs in healthcare settings, and  those who help guide and advise their organisation in implementing Patient Safety Incident Response Framework and the required patient engagement

About the organisers:

Advancing Quality Alliance and Judy Walker Associates have joined forces to create and deliver this unique workshop because both organisations are committed to enabling healthcare providers to make progress in fully embedding the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework and its principles of compassionate and proportionate learning responses.

Outcomes:

  1. To know the key components for setting up the AARs for success for the individual patients, and staff as well as the organisation.

  2. To know what your individual organisations’ strengths and weaknesses are in creating the conditions for successfully using AAR with patients.

  3. To know how to create psychologically safe conditions for learning in an AAR.

  4. To know how to respond when challenges arise during an AAR.

  5. To know when best to use AAR (including Duty of Candour) and when not.

  7. To know how other health providers are working to involve patients and their families in AAR.
