This one day masterclass is part of a series of masterclasses focusing on how to use Human Factors in your workplace. Leadership in the NHS is the responsibility of all staff. Understanding human factors will allow healthcare to enhance performance, culture and organisation. These masterclasses have been designed to align with the new Patient Safety Syllabus and subsequent Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF). We will look at why things go wrong and how to implement change to prevent it from happening again or mitigate the risks.

The Patient Safety Strategy (2019) and Patient Safety Investigation Framework (PSIRF) both outline a fundamental shift in the way that patient safety investigations are conducted. This ‘new era’ in patient safety represents a considerable shift in the way that investigations are conducted, particularly for those NHS Trusts implementing PSIRF. As the Serious Incident Framework (2015) becomes obsolete, how teams select their incidents to investigate will shift away from severity of harm to focusing on pinpointing opportunities to maximising learning. Indeed, under the new arrangements, teams are encouraged to consider utilising a wider range of investigation techniques that will ensure a more proportionate and potentially less time-consuming approach to understanding sub-standard care and failings. With an emphasis on systems thinking and human factors, organisations will need to identify and train expert investigators.

This session will focus on blood and bodily fluids exposure, including sharps injuries as well as their risk factors and prevention strategies. This webinar will present the 2020 RCN study and the 2022 UK NHS Trust study of sharps injury (SI) among UK HCW and, by comparing these results with other countries, question whether UK 2013 Sharps Regulations went far enough, and whether increased emphasis may be required on reporting, recording and implementation of effective prevention strategies. Learning outcomes: Define sharps injuries (SI); the four steps in sharps usage that place staff at risk; and the top two staff groups at risk of SI. Discuss the incidence of SI in the UK and UK HCW staff groups compared with international incidences. Appraise whether facility’s reporting and recording of SI enables benchmarking of the efficacy of their preventive strategies. Define three prevention strategies proven to reduce SI. Register

Diagnostic error is the failure to establish an accurate and timely explanation of the patient’s health problem(s) or failure to communicate that explanation to the patient. The global burden of diagnostic errors is significant and has far-reaching implications for patients, healthcare systems, and society as a whole. Patient engagement plays a vital role in mitigating diagnostic errors by leveraging the unique knowledge, perspectives, and experiences of patients. Collaborative decision-making and open communication can significantly enhance the accuracy and quality of diagnostic processes, leading to improved patient care. Join the World Patient Alliance workshop on diagnostic errors and learn from leading healthcare providers and patient advocates on what is the global burden of diagnostic errors and how these can be reduced.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Due to the upcoming junior doctors industrial action, this event was originally 14 July but has been postponed to 10 October. Meeting the NHS' net zero emission targets requires carbon reductions across patient pathways. Achieving this means delivering high quality, evidence based, low carbon care to our patients. Clinicians are a vital part of the innovation, adoption, and embedding of low carbon practices which prioritise high quality patient care. The BMJ and the UK Health Alliance on Climate Change are hosting a new one-day conference which will focus on reducing the carbon impact of services across the health and care system, and the role that every healthcare professional can play in delivering a net zero NHS. Due to popular demand the event will be both an in-person and virtual event. You can attend virtually, via a live feed, or add your name to the waiting list to attend in-person on 14 July at BMA House, London. Register

An enhancing junior doctors working lives (EJDWL) event hosted by NHS England for: Doctors in training Guardians of Safeworking National guidance encourages the use of e-rostering for medics and it is increasingly likely that doctors in training will encounter an e-rota while working in secondary care. However, doctors’ knowledge of e-rostering is often limited to previous experience, which can make it difficult to know whether they are benefiting from all the features available. This lunchtime webinar aims to educate doctors on the range of features available, and empower them to engage with and improve e-rostering at their workplace. As well as an introductory talk from doctors in training in the EJDWL team, hear real world examples from doctors on how they have engaged with and improved e-rostering, and learn how you can do the same at your workplace and nationally. Speakers: Professor Robert Galloway - Helping to solve NHS challenges with a workforce first approachED consultant championing annualised rotas with self-preferencing, University Hospitals Sussex.

Public Policy Project's second phase of its integrated care policy programme will centre around the ICS Delivery Forum. The Delivery Forum will build on the foundations of the ICS Roadshow, continuing to connect key health and care stakeholders at a localised debate and networking. However, the Delivery Forum will focus on developing impact-driven, results-orientated insights. Working in close collaboration with ICSs and crucial providers, PPP is creating a programme that highlights exactly how ICSs are making place based, personalised care a reality and the impact this is having on individual citizens and communities. Rather than discuss issues such as health inequalities in broad framing and terminology, the Delivery Forum will ask local systems leaders and stakeholders to demonstrate exactly how integrated care systems can affect change in key health and care challenges. The Delivery Forum will also provide a helping hand to ICBs grappling with workforce challenges and service pressures by connecting system leaders with on the ground innovators and industry experts. Audiences will consist of local ICS leaders and representatives from the NHS, social care, primary care and local government, as well as community workers and social prescribing specialists. Further, the ICS Delivery Forum will engage with patients and end-users to gather first-hand experience of receiving care within a system in dire need of reform. This event is free for the Public Sector– including, NHS Organisations, Local Authorities, academics, researchers, non-for-profit and third sector providers and charitable sectors. Register

NHS Confederation are bringing together organisations working to treat people closer to home. This conference will offer an opportunity for senior leaders across health and care to come together and explore health beyond the hospital. Health beyond the hospital is a chance to come together with others working in this space to explore how we can work collaboratively to support people in their homes and the community. It will focus on three key themes: people with health conditions (older people; people with multiple and complex conditions; and children and young people); data and digital; and innovation. This will be a key opportunity for members and non-members to network with peers, to share knowledge and experience, as well as listen to experts from across healthcare. By focusing on what we can do together and uniting around patients we can shift the conversation to focus on treating people where they live and keeping them well at home. Register
