Content Article
In this blog, author, consultant and patient safety expert Tom Bell shares his story of being approached by an NHS Trust to take up a role as a Patient Safety Partner. He describes how his initial enthusiasm to make a difference was crushed by the Trust’s failure to value his experience and time. Tom describes the Trust’s approach to working with Patient Safety Partners and implementing PSIRF as tokenistic and disjointed. He highlights the gap between the Trust’s stated view about the importance of working with Patient Safety Partners and its disorganised internal systems and unwillingness to manage and compensate Patient Safety Partners for their work. -
