DESCRIPTION:\n	This webinar from The Yorkshire Quality and Safety Resea
	rch Group explores a recent research study into how vulnerable patients ar
	e able to contribute to their safety.\n\n\n\n	Over the last decade a wealt
	h of studies have explored the way that patients are involved in patient s
	afety internationally. Most begin from the premise that patients can and s
	hould take on the role of identifying and reporting safety concerns. Most 
	give little attention\, however\, to the impact of the patient’s health 
	status and vulnerability on their ability to participate in their safety. 
	Drawing on qualitative interviews with 28 acute medical patients\, this ar
	ticle aims to demonstrate how patients’ contributions to their safety in
	 the acute medical context are less about involvement as a deliberate inte
	rvention\, and more about how patients manage their own vulnerability in t
	heir interactions with staff. Our analysis is underpinned by theories of v
	ulnerability and risk. This enables us to provide a deeper understanding o
	f the ways vulnerability shapes patients’ involvement in their safety. A
	cute medical patients engage in reassurance-seeking\, relational and vigil
	ance work to manage their vulnerability. Patients undertake reassurance se
	eking to obtain evidence that they can trust the organisation and the prof
	essionals who work in it and relational and vigilance work to manage the v
	ulnerability associated with dependence on others and the unpredictability
	 of their status as acute medical patients. We argue that patients are inv
	olved in the process of creating patient safety at the point of care. Fore
	grounding the theory of vulnerability and its relationship to risk offers 
	new insights into the potentials and limits of patient involvement in pati
	ent safety in the acute care context.\n\n\n\n	Liz Sutton is a Research Ass
	ociate in the Social Science Applied to Healthcare Improvement Research (S
	APPHIRE) Group\, Department of Health Sciences\, University of Leicester. 
	She has considerable expertise in qualitative research including: qualitat
	ive interviewing\, focus group facilitation and ethnography. Her ethnograp
	hic projects have been conducted in different settings including hospital 
	acute care and in care homes\, where she has explored such issues as the q
	uality and safety of care and how context affects antibiotic prescribing. 
	Her PhD research explored how vulnerability affects patient involvement in
	 patient safety. Her other interests include dementia care\, healthcare qu
	ality improvement and health inequalities.\n\n\n\n	Register for the webina
