The importance of overarching leadership for patient safety in health and social care is a key concept. Ensuring that leaders embed staff safety into safety programmes is essential.
Some of the core issues that our exceptional panel will be exploring:
-
How are leaders ensuring patient and staff safety during the pandemic? Are we doing enough?
-
How are we prioritising patient access to non Covid care and treatment?
-
Are we doing enough to encourage just and learning cultures and staff speaking up for safety?
-
How are we sharing learning and knowledge on safe treatment and care?
-
How are system and professional regulators ensuring that patient safety is a priority?
