The NHS Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) was launched in 2022 and is intended for full implementation by Autumn 2023. PSIRF requires Integrated Care Board (ICB)’s to work collaboratively with providers to develop a Patient Safety Incident Response Plan (PSIRP) and Patient Safety Incident Response Policy. Within the PSIRP, each organisation must work with their ICB and other stakeholders to identify how it will respond proportionately to all incidents requiring investigation. Suffolk and North East Essex NHS Foundation Trust share their Standard Operating Procedure on PSIRF ICB sign off process.- Posted

Content Article
NHS England’s Patient Safety Team will be launching the new Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) in the Spring of 2022, and one of the tools it will recommend to enhance learning from events is After Action Review (AAR). It is likely that each healthcare provider will define its own 'playing field' for AAR as the PSIRF is integrated in daily practice in the months and years ahead, yet this can extend far wider than many assume. In the 12 years since I was trained as an AAR Conductor, I have grown to appreciate its adaptability as well as the many benefits it delivers. The examples of real AARs described here are designed to illustrate some of the many applications. As you will see, these AARs have created opportunities for learning at three levels, all of which contribute to the delivery of safe and effective patient care: the individual, the team and the organisation.- Posted

The Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) sets out the NHS's approach to developing and maintaining effective systems and processes for responding to patient safety incidents for the purpose of learning and improving patient safety It is intended to support one of the key aims of the NHS Patient Safety Strategy, to help the NHS improve its understanding of safety by drawing insight from patient safety incidents. This will replace the Serious Incident Framework with organisations expected to transition to PSIRF within 12 months of its publication, by Autumn 2023.- Posted

This virtual masterclass will build confidence in compassionately engaging and involving families and loved ones to work within the requirements of PSIRF and the Complaints Standards Framework. But more than this, the masterclass will support staff to go beyond compliance to understand the issues and emotional component on a deeper level; to have real authentic engagement and involvement with patients and families. New frameworks such as PSIRF are now in place, but how do we not only comply with these, but go beyond compliance to have real authentic compassionate engagement and involvement with patients, families and indeed staff to make a real positive difference? Connecting new knowledge with emotions can really support long term learning, which is an important part of this masterclass. Knowing things may have gone wrong can feel a heavy burden and a complex emotional situation to be managing. Often, we avoid visiting difficult emotions in others, as well as ourselves, because we don’t feel confident or skilled, or we feel fearful of not doing it perfectly. This one-day masterclass will look at the new PSIRF and the Complaints Standards Framework and through real life content, bringing the human focus for the patients, loved ones, and indeed staff to the forefront. It will support staff to explore what compassionate engagement looks like, feels like, and how to communicate it authentically and meaningfully. In a supportive and relaxed environment, delegates will have the opportunity to gain in depth knowledge of the emotional component, relate to, analyse and realise the significance of and believe in their own abilities in creating practices that not only support the PSIRF but go beyond compliance to be working in a way that supports gaining an optimum outcome for patients, families and staff, in often a less than optimum situation. Key learning objectives: Feel, analyse, and explore the presence and absence of compassionate engagement within life, trauma, and a healthcare incident and how empathy is the gateway to compassion. Seeing perspectives and understanding emotional motivations and the emotional component recognising vulnerability in others and self. Seeing the bigger picture and having an enquiring mind to understand the story and how the ‘Funnel of Life’ can impact on our ability to engage. Build confidence in the positive impact of compassionate engagement and really being authentically interested in the emotional component to be able to create an optimum outcome in often a less than optimum situation. Explore and have a good grasp of how internal unconscious belief systems, can link through to the outcomes we achieve. We know what works with compassionate engagement, but why do we so often struggle? Explore and analyse biases, judgments, and how a lack of compassionate engagement not only has the potential to cause psychological harm, but can prevent optimum outcomes for the organisation. Realise the significance of authenticity rather than feeling fearful of not doing things perfectly. Examine where can we get emotional information from to support us, even if we are not aware we are doing it! Identify the importance of an enquiring mind and a hypothesis as we try and understand the story that we are aiming to compassionately engage with. Develop understanding of Safeguarded Personal Resolution (SPR ®) to formulate compassionate engagement under PSIRF and the Complaints Standards Framework.

The Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) arguably represents the most significant change to investigating and managing patient safety incidents in the history of the NHS. To embed PSIRF effectively within organisations, healthcare teams need to understand and utilise a range of new techniques and disciplines. Clinical audit is an established quality improvement methodology that is often overlooked by patient safety teams, but will play an increasingly important role in ensuring that PSIRF fully delivers its stated objectives. CQC reports often highlight the importance of clinical audit as a measurement and assurance tool that can raise red flags if used appropriately. Indeed, both the Ockenden and Kirkup reports highlighted the importance of clinical audit in identifying and quantifying substandard care. While SEIPS, After Action Reviews, more in-depth interviewing techniques, etc. are all receiving much fanfare in relation to PSIRF, the importance of clinical audit needs to be better understood. This short course will explain how organisations who use clinical audit effectively will increase patient safety and better understand why incidents take place. We will look at the key role of audit in understanding work as imagined and works as done and show why national audits can assist with creating patient safety plans. Change analysis and the effective implementation of safety actions are keys to PSIRF delivery and clinical audit will assist in the delivery of both. We will also demonstrate the important, but often under-appreciated role, clinical audit staff will have in the successful delivery of PSIRF. Key learning outcomes: Why clinical audit is an integral element of PSIRF. Why clinical audit staff have a vital role to play in PSIRF. How clinical audit data can help raise red flags and spot risks. Using clinical audit to better understand your incidents. Ensuring your safety actions are working. Using audit to assess your patient safety incident investigations. Register hub members will receive 20% discount. Email info@pslhub.org for a discount code. -

This one day masterclass is part of a series of masterclasses focusing on how to use Human Factors in your workplace and is aligned with the new Patient Safety Syllabus and subsequent Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF). The new Patient Safety Strategy advises that organisations must adopt a new and broader approach to stimulate learning from patient safety incidents. This course is designed to assist healthcare professionals involved in this important work. The main purpose is to provide learners with a full understanding of the various approaches that can now be used to conduct patient safety incident investigation (PSIIs). Traditionally, root cause analysis has been used as a blanket approach to diagnosing why patient safety have been compromised, but healthcare teams are henceforth being encouraged to adopt a wider range of methods that will both save time and facilitate enhanced learning. The focus is now on appropriate proportionality in response to incidents that occur in their organisation. Key learning objectives: Understand the new patient safety landscape Understand the need for proportionality of investigation Learn how to use a range of techniques for conducting PSIIs Understand how to write an impactful improvement plan Consider how your current approach to patient safety investigations compares to the agreed national standards Understand typical pitfalls and traps associated with this wider work stream and tips for avoiding them. The course is facilitated by Tracy Ruthven and Stephen Ashmore who have significant experience of undertaking patient safety reviews in healthcare. They were commissioned to write a national RCA guide by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership. They have also authored articles on significant event analysis and clinical audit/quality improvement, all techniques seen as increasingly relevant to improving patient safety.
