    East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust's agency spend on healthcare support workers (HCSW) was high and rising. This caused not only financial pressures but concerns about care quality. The trust set itself the ambitious aim of eliminating agency spend on HCSWs entirely.

    This case study shows how Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust sought to reduce their staff turnover by adopting a development opportunity created by Nottingham University Hospitals NHS Trust for newly qualified recruits – the Chief Nurse Junior Fellowship.

    Professor Anne Marie Rafferty, Royal College of Nursing (RCN) President, has been involved in two decades of vital nursing workforce research. She explains in this interview for the RCN how the evidence could help us achieve safe staffing.

    NHS Improvement has designed this programme to help trusts develop evidence-based approaches to effective staffing decisions, taking into account all elements that contribute to safe, effective care and great patient experience.

    This 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.

    An adverse clinical event, patient safety incident or medical error can have a far-reaching impact not only for the patient and their families, the 'first victims', but also the healthcare professionals involved. These are sometimes referred to as ‘second victims’. Often there are few opportunities for second victim healthcare professionals to discuss the details of incidents or events and share how this has affected them personally. The East Midlands Patient Safety Collaborative (EMPSC) funded the University of Leicester as part of their National Safety Culture workstream to develop a Second Victim Support Unit within the Children’s Hospital at University Hospitals Leicester to test whether models of support established in the US could be successfully transferred to UK health settings.

    Between 2005 and 2008 conditions of appalling care were able to flourish in the main hospital serving the people of Stafford and its surrounding area. During this period this hospital was managed by a Board which succeeded in leading its Trust (the Mid Staffordshire General Hospital NHS Trust) to foundation trust (FT) status. The Board was one which had largely replaced its predecessor because of concerns about the then NHS Trust’s performance. In preparation for its application for FT status, the Trust had been scrutinised by the local Strategic Health Authority (SHA) and the Department of Health (DH). Local scrutiny committees and public involvement groups detected no systemic failings. In the end, the truth was uncovered in part by attention being paid to the true implications of its mortality rates, but mainly because of the persistent complaints made by a very determined group of patients and those close to them. This group wanted to know why they and their loved ones had been failed so badly. The report was laid before Parliament in response to a legislative requirement.

    This is a summary of the Care Quality Commission (CQC) report into social care in the UK. This report is written to target all audiences.

    The Safer Nursing Care Tool has been developed by the Shelford Group to help NHS hospital staff measure patient acuity and/or dependency to inform evidence-based decision making on staffing and workforce. The tool, when allied to Nurse Sensitive Indicators (NSIs), offers nurses a reliable method against which to deliver evidence-based workforce plans to support existing services or to develop new services. The Shelford Group is an organisation comprising Chief Executives of 10 of the leading NHS multi-specialty academic healthcare organisations in England. The Chief Nurses of each of these NHS Trusts belong to a subgroup of the organisation and they meet every two months to share best-practice, benchmark and work towards improving standards in nursing.

    NHS Improvement provide general guidance and a starting point towards delivering effective safer staffing.

    I can’t find any guidance for safe staffing here in the UK. I would like to know how Trusts decide their staffing template. Who decides, how it’s decided and if that is adhered to.

    This study from Cho et al. examined the association of nurse staffing and education with the length of stay of surgical patients in acute care hospitals in South Korea. They found that nurse staffing and nurses’ education levels were significantly associated with the length of stay of surgical patients in South Korean hospitals. The findings from this study suggest that the South Korea healthcare system should develop appropriate strategies to improve the nurse staffing and education levels to ensure high-quality patient care in hospitals.
