    Findings Findings of this investigation included: There is limited standardisation of handovers, ward rounds (visits to each patient in a ward to review and discuss their care) and huddles (short, focused staff briefings), in terms of which members of the multidisciplinary team are involved, and how they are conducted for maximum effectiveness. Processes for the checking of medicines varied without evidence of what constituted the most effective process. The environments within which staff prepared and checked medicines influenced their performance. There are no s

    I love and support the NHS. But when things go wrong for patients and service users, the system is often too slow to change or respond effectively. I have been through complaints, the Ombudsman and Inquest processes around the poor end of life care of my late mother. Those processes took years and were almost as stressful as those last few days of my mother’s life. I would not do it again. At the time, I reported the incident in detail to the CQC (inspectors), to the CCG (commissioners), to Healthwatch (local and national), but I noted no evidence of change. In fact, the CQC continued for

    Key findings: The majority of studies typically classify patient harm as preventable if it occurs as a result of an identifiable modifiable cause and its future recurrence can be avoided by reasonable adaptation to a process or adherence to guidelines. At least 6% of patients experienced preventable harm across the healthcare service. 13% of the identified preventable harm causes prolonged or permanent disability or leads to death. The main types of patient safety incidents which contribute to preventable harm are medication incidents, diagnostic incidents and incidents

    The new research maps the provision of safer custody telephone lines across the prison estate - dedicated phone lines which enable family members and others to pass on urgent information when they have concerns. It finds that provision is patchy, under-resourced and even non-existent in some prisons, leaving families struggling to share their concerns with prison staff. The report reveals that: Almost two in five (37%) prisons in England and Wales appeared to have no functioning dedicated safer custody telephone lines for families to get in touch. Of these, nearly one in five

This means prompt diagnosis, local support services and effective crisis intervention.People who are being cared for in hospital in the meantime must receive high-quality, person-centred, specialised care in small units. This means the right staff who are trained to support t
