Oxford AHSN Patient Safety Collaborative
November 2014
1
What is patient safety?• Broadly the reduction of harm
• Incident? Adverse events?• Or major failures in care with implications for patients?• Or the risk of such events?
• Building a safer system• Safety as an aspiration in a hazardous environment• This has implications for what we do and how we
approach the programme

Prioritisation• Sources:
• National priorities (essentials – assume this is leadership and measurement)
• Local priorities (Trusts, commissioners and clinical networks) chosen from:• Falls• Pressure ulcers• Nutrition and hydration• Acute kidney injury• UTIs and other infections• Missed and delayed diagnosis• Failure to return to mental health wards• Deterioration of patients• Medication safety• Sepsis• Handover & discharge

• Process to agree future priorities6
Measurement & Evaluation• Our major challenge will be to demonstrate change (rather
than activity)• This has bedevilled all safety programmes in NHS• Measurement is therefore number 1 priority because:
• It focuses minds and priorities• It has been the major headache for all safety programmes• The time taken to get measures in place has been consistently
underestimated• It is essential for the programme teams to function effectively• It is fundamental to evaluation
• We should not initiate any programme in early phase unless measures are already available

Types of safety initiative
• Clinical topic programmes • Thematic clinical programmes which address issues which
cross the best care programmes (e.g. handover, transitions etc)
• Thematic programmes which address organisational and system level issues (e.g. regulation)
• And others ….• In the longer term we need to build a safer system
