Event details
As part of its mission to promote good governance, the Good Governance Institute (GGI) host facilitated, weekly virtual meetings to give NHS non-executive directors an opportunity to share their concerns, challenges and ideas as we rethink the future of health and social care. The goal is to collectively think about the role NEDs play as part of the controlling mind of their organisations, to discuss immediate safeguarding issues and to ensure we all learn from this experience to assure better outcomes for citizens in the future.
Patient safety has been moving up the Board agenda in recent years, yet it remains the case that avoidable deaths still equate to the loss of a aeroplane each and every week. In this session Helen Hughes will discuss how Boards can change their culture and practice to integrate patient safety into their agendas.
• What role can standards play in the patient safety agenda?
• How can the patient perspective be made integral to patient safety?
• What can we learn from other sectors about patient safety?
• What are the checklist questions all Boards should be thinking about in relation to patient safety?
