Patient safety incident inquest report template

Summary

Stef Cormack, Patient Safety Specialist at Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospital NHS Trust, recently presented at the Patient Safety Management Network meeting on the work she has been doing on the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) and with coroners.

Attached is the template the Trust uses to supplement the evidence the Trust provides to the Coroner for the purposes of the Inquest investigation, and to summarise the investigations, findings, conclusions, learning points and actions, which form the Trust’s response to the relevant patient safety incident(s) under PSIRF. Steph is happy for other organisations to adapt and use.
