    Read how Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust has adopted and embedded its just and learning culture and its training package.  The trust estimates that the just and learning culture has provided economic benefits of roughly £2.5million since 2016. A just and learning culture is one focused on fairness and learning, and absent of blame when things go wrong. It aims to encourage staff to feel able to speak up.

    “Just culture” is rightly, a much-used phrase in patient safety and a major theme in the patient safety strategy for England and all the UK countries. However, there is no single definition of ‘just culture’ and most discussion of it is limited to the issue of being fair to healthcare staff. This is vitally important, which is why we advised on and endorsed the NHS Resolution Being Fair guidance and NHS Improvement’s Just Culture Guide. However, AvMA and many of the stakeholders believe that we need a nationally agreed definition that places equal emphasis on being fair to patients and families, and which covers the whole system, from policy formulation to the delivery of healthcare and what happens when harm occurs.

    This is the response submitted by the Patients Association to the Department of Health and Social Care as part of its consultation seeking views on the proposed legislative details on the appointment and operation of the Patient Safety Commissioner for England. In this they argue for arrangements for the Commissioner's appointment and operation to guarantee their independence as securely as possible, and express disappointment that the role will not cover all aspects of patient safety.

    This article discusses red rules, a safety practice used by industries and are associated only with processes that can cause serious harm to employees, customers, or the product line. The article describes red rule criteria, examples in industry, everyday life, in healthcare and when they are misused, concluding that if appropriately implemented, red rules can have the potential to promote an organizational culture of safety that shares accountability for the safe delivery of patient care.

    A "Fair and Just Culture" supports learning from unsafe acts that result in potential or real harm as a way to prevent future errors. A fair and just culture strikes a balance between a punitive culture and a blame free culture. Differentiating acceptable from unacceptable behaviour associated with harmful events requires a consistent approach to determine culpability of individuals against system flaws that contribute to unsafe acts. More than one unsafe act by more than one individual can contribute to an event. For optimal learning and fair treatment of staff, each act should be considered individually using the same structured approach.

    This study in Risk Management and Healthcare Policy aimed to explore healthcare workers’ perceptions of patient safety culture at primary healthcare centres in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, and the factors that influence them. It also aimed to identify the challenges of adopting patient safety culture in these centres. The study findings highlight a number of areas for improvement, particularly in relation to event reporting, non-punitive responses, and openness in communication. The authors highlight that error reporting should not just be considered a means of learning from mistakes, but should also be considered the first step towards preventing injury and improving patient safety. They highlight the need to eliminate three crucial elements associated with errors - blame, fear, and silence - in order to build a safety culture.

    This is the first in our new series of Patient Safety Spotlight interviews, where we talk to different people about their role and what motivates them to make health and social care safer. Josie tells us about the nursing error that first sparked her interest in patient safety, how a just culture helps healthcare workers and systems learn from their mistakes, and how her love of skiing has inspired her to think differently about risk in healthcare.

    This virtual seminar from the Clinical Human Factors Group will be looking at Just Culture and incident investigation and will feature two of the authors, Jan Davies and Carmella Steinke, of the new book 'Fatal Solution' , a book which describes "how a healthcare system used tragedy to transform itself and redefine Just Culture". In this provocative true story of tragedy, the authors recount the journey travelled and what was learned by, at the time, Canada’s largest fully integrated health region. They weave this story together with the theory about why things fall apart and how to put them back together again. Building on the writings and wisdom of James Reason and other experts, the book explores new ways of thinking about Just Culture, and what this would mean for patients and family members, in addition to healthcare providers. With afterwords by two of the major players in this story, the authors make a compelling case that Just Culture is as much about fairness and healing as it is about supporting a safety culture." To accompany this story Ken Catchpole, Professor of Human Factors at Medical University of South Carolina will discuss a variety of enablers and barriers to learning from clinical safety incidents, based on his perspective within the US health system. This will illustrate the format of incident analysis and response at MUSC; legal and regulatory issues; and the role and impact of human factors and systems engineering. He will also comment on the recent RaDonda Vaught case, and what that tells us about how far we still have to go. Jane O’Hara, Professor of Healthcare Quality and Safety in Leeds will adds a UK perspective to this worldwide issue, together with a session focusing on the view from a pharmacy perspective. Register

    Is it time to change the way England's healthcare system is funded? Is the English system in need of radical structural change at the top? I've been prompted to think about this by the article about the German public health system on the BBC website: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-62986347.amp There are no quick fixes, however we all need to look at this closely. I believe that really 'modernising' / 'transforming' our health & #socialcare systems could 'save the #NHS'. Both for #patients through improved safety, efficiency & accountability, and by making the #NHS an attractive place to work again, providing the NHS Constitution for England is at the heart of changes and is kept up to date. In my experience, having worked in healthcare for the private sector and the NHS, and lived and worked in other countries, we need to open our eyes. At present it could be argued that we have the worst of both worlds in England. A partially privatised health system and a fully privatised social care system. All strung together by poor commissioning and artificial and toxic barriers, such as the need for continuing care assessments. In my view a change, for example to a German-style system, could improve patient safety through empowering the great managers and leaders we have in the NHS. These key people are held back by the current hierarchical crony-ridden system, and we are at risk of losing them. In England we have a system which all too often punishes those who speak out for patients and hides failings behind a web of denial, obfuscation and secrecy, and in doing this fails to learn. Vast swathes of unnecessary bureaucracy and duplication could be eliminated, gaps more easily identified, and greater focus given to deeply involving patients in the delivery of their own care. This is a contentious subject as people have such reverence for the NHS. I respect the values of the NHS and want to keep them; to do this effectively we need much more open discussion on how it is organised and funded. What are people's views?

    It's #SpeakUpMonth in the #NHS so why isn't the National Guardian Office using the word whistleblowing? After all it was the Francis Review into whistleblowing that led to the recommendation for Speak Up Guardians. I believe that if we don't talk about it openly and use the word 'WHISTLEBLOWING' we will be unable to learn and change. Whistleblowing isn’t a problem to be solved or managed, it’s an opportunity to learn and improve. So many genuine healthcare whistleblowers seem to be excluded from contributing to the debate, and yes not all those who claim to be whistleblowers are genuine. The more we move away for labelling and stereotyping, and look at what's happening from all angles, the more we will learn. Regardless of our position, role or perceived status, we all need to address this much more openly and explicitly, in a spirit of truth and with a genuine desire to learn and change.

    Way back in March I applied to re-join the NHS to help with COVID-19. I am a mental health nurse prescriber with an unblemished clinical record. I have had an unusual career which includes working in senior management before returning to clinical work in 2002. I have also helped deliver several projects that achieved nation recognition, including one that was highly commented by NICE in 2015, and one that was presented at the NICE Annual Conference in 2018. Several examples of my work can be found on the NICE Shared Learning resource pages. Since applying as an NHS returner. I have been interviewed online 6 times by 3 different organisations, all repeating the same questions. I was told that the area of work I felt best suited to working in - primary care/ community / mental health , specialising in prescribing and multi-morbidity - was in demand. A reference has been taken up and my DBS check eventually came through. I also received several (mostly duplicated) emails. On 29th June I received a call from the acute trust in Cornwall about returning. I explained that I had specified community / primary care as I have no recent acute hospital experience. The caller said they would pass me over to NHS Kernow, an organisation I had mentioned in my application. I have heard nothing since. I can only assume the backlisting I have suffered for speaking out for patients, is still in place. If this is true (and I am always open to being corrected) it is an appalling reflection on the NHS culture in my view. Here is my story: http://www.carerightnow.co.uk/i-dont-want-to-hear-anything-bad-whistleblowing-in-health-social-care/

    Restorative justice brings those harmed by crime or conflict and those responsible for the harm into communication, enabling everyone affected by a particular incident to play a part in repairing the harm and finding a positive way forward. This is part of a wider field called restorative practice. Restorative practice can be used anywhere to prevent conflict, build relationships and repair harm by enabling people to communicate effectively and positively. This approach is increasingly being used in schools, children’s services, workplaces, hospitals, communities and the criminal justice system. What are your thoughts on how this approach would work in a healthcare setting? Does anyone have any experience of using restorative practice?

    The Academy of Medical Royal Colleges have published the first National patient safety syllabus that will underpin the development of curricula for all NHS staff as part of the NHS Patient Safety Strategy: https://www.pslhub.org/learn/professionalising-patient-safety/training/staff-clinical/national-patient-safety-syllabus-open-for-comment-r1399/ Via the above link you can access a ‘key points’ document which provides some of the context for the syllabus and answers to some frequently asked questions. AOMRC are inviting key stakeholders to review this iteration of the syllabus (1.0) and provide feedback via completing the online survey or e-mailing Rose Jarvis before 28 February 2020. I would be interested to hear people's thoughts and feedback and any comments which people are happy to share which they've submitted via the online survey
