What are Patient Safety Collaboratives?
Claire Cox posted an article in Health Innovation Networks (formerly AHSNs)
England’s 15 Patient Safety Collaboratives (PSCs) play an essential role in identifying and spreading safer care initiatives from within the NHS and industry, ensuring these are shared and implemented throughout the system. The PSC is a joint initiative, funded and nationally coordinated by NHS Improvement, with the regional PSCs organised and delivered locally by the Academic Health Science Networks (AHSNs).- Posted

Content ArticlePatient reporting and action for a safe environment (PRASE) is system for collecting patient feedback about how safe they feel whilst in hospital. It is designed to help staff identify things that are working well, and areas needing improvement. Feedback is collected using a patient safety questionnaire and a reporting tool. With the help of PRASE hospital volunteers, patient feedback is collected. Once enough information has been collected, a ward report is produced and guidance is provided to help make action plans and monitor their successes.

Supporting second victims: breaking the cycle of harm
Claire Cox posted an article in Second victim
'Second victim' is the term used to refer to healthcare workers who are impacted by patient safety incidents. Whilst patients and families will always be the first priority following safety incidents, the well-being of the staff involved is often overlooked but can leave staff lacking confidence, unable to perform their job, requiring time off or leaving their profession.- Posted

Content ArticleThis report states that patient and public engagement has been on the NHS agenda for many years, but the impact has been disappointing. There have been a great many public consultations, surveys, and one-off initiatives, but it argues that the service is still not sufficiently patient-centred. In particular, it looks at a lack of focus on engaging patients in their own clinical care, despite strong evidence that this could make a real difference to health outcomes. This paper argues that a more strategic approach is required to create the necessary shift in beliefs, attitudes and behaviours.

How can After Action Review (AAR) improve patient safety?
Judy Walker posted an article in Good practice
The NHS Long Term Plan highlighted several safety issues that need to be addressed: the fear of blame and retribution which curtails reporting and learning, lack of staff understanding of patient safety matters and workforce issues. This short article summarises what I have learnt about how After Action Review (AAR) can directly address the first two of these and indirectly impact on the third.- Posted

Content ArticleBack in January 2019, we started a regular team newsletter. Initially this was aimed at only the critical care unit (CCU) team; however, very quickly it developed into an all trust audience. In this post I discuss the multiple benefits the newsletter has offered as well as the challenges I came across. I want to share my experience on developing the newsletter to encourage other teams to consider writing a regular newsletter if they don’t already have one. This followed on from several outreach teams contacting me personally for assistance in writing their own newsletters.

Content ArticleVideo recording technologies offer a powerful way to document what happens in clinical areas. Cameras, and to a lesser extent, microphones, can be found in a growing number of modern operating rooms in the USA, UK and other parts of the world. While they could be used to create a detailed record of what happens in and around the operating table, this is still rarely being done; the vast majority of operations are still only documented in written operation notes. In this paper, Bezemer et al. discuss using microanalysis of videos from the operating room.
