Considering pressure ulcers in PSIRF planning
Listen now
Description
As part of preparation to transition to the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF), organisations are required to create a patient safety incident response policy and plan. In this podcast, we are joined by Jacqui Fletcher, Senior Clinical Advisor for Stop the Pressure Programme and National Wound Care Strategy, who we collaborated with to develop a guide to applying PSIRF principles in relation to planning how to respond to pressure ulcers. We discuss this guide as well wider tips for creating a patient safety incident response plan.   The pressure ulcer resource is available here: https://future.nhs.uk/NHSps/view?objectId=151094917 Additional resources to support organisations to create a patient safety incident response policy and plan are also available: PSIRF planning workshop recording, slides and Q&A: Planning workshop - NHS Patient Safety - FutureNHS Collaboration: https://future.nhs.uk/NHSps/browseFolder?fid=42253872&done=FOLCreated PlatformPatient Safety Incident Response Plan template: https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/B1465-8.-Patient-safety-incident-response-plan-template-v1-FINAL.docx Patient Safety Incident Response Policy template: https://www.england.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/B1465-7.-Patient-safety-incident-response-policy-template-v1-FINAL.docx Example PSIRPs from early adopters (note template has changed significantly): Example Patient Safety Incident Response Plans - NHS Patient Safety - FutureNHS Collaboration Platform: https://future.nhs.uk/NHSps/view?objectId=38159024
