A promise to learn – a commitment to act
“The most important single
change in the NHS in response to
this report would be for it to
become, more than ever before, a
system devoted to continual
learning and improvement of care,
top to bottom and end to end.”
Don Berwick, August 2013
WE BELIEVE: A MANIFESTO FOR PATIENT SAFETY IN PRIMARY CARE
FROM SMALL STEPS BIG CHANGE CAN OCCUR
PRIMARY CARE IS THE HE OF THE NHS
WORKING TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE CHANGE HAPPEN FASTER AND BETTER
SAFETY IN NUMBERSBETTER SAFETY CULTURE = BETTER, SAFER CARE FOR PATIENTS
WE CAN’T CHANGE THE HUMAN CONDITIONS, BUT WE CAN CHANGE THE CONDITIONS HUMANS WORK IN
HEAR THE VOICE OF THE PATIENT  BE PART OF THE CIRCLE OF CARE
NEVER STOP LEARNING & EXPERIMENTING
REPORTING AND LEARNING FROM INCIDENTS WILL CREATE THE CONDITIONS FOR SAFER PATIENT CARE
CELEBRATE SUCCESS  SHARE AND LEARN BEST PRACTICE

What? Patient Safety and Quality Improvement
What does better look like?
Pathological
• Who cares if we
are not caught?
Reactive
• Safety is
important we do
lots of it after
every accident
Calculative
• We have
systems in place
to manage all
hazards
Proactive
• We work on
problems that
we still find
Generative
• Safety is built
into the way we
work and think

Values
Person-centred view
Perfection Myth. If I try harder, I won’t make a mistake.
The Punishment Myth. If we punish a person who makes
an error, they won’t make the error again.
Systems view
Perfection Myth. If I try harder, I won’t make a mistake.
The Punishment Myth. If we punish a person who makes
an error, they won’t make the error again.
Johnson’s Substitution Test. Could some equally
motivated, comparably qualified staff member have made
the same error under similar circumstances?
Culture: the heart of quality
improvement
Anna Burhouse
Building reliable systems
• Design needs to be woven into working practices, with
repeated cycles of adaptation, small steps.
• Find what works, adapt or abandon what does not.
• When you know what works on a small scale, look to
implement more widely.
• Ask the people who are on the receiving end of care
whether the new methods result in good care.
• Open culture, flat hierarchies, challenge is not a threat
but a source of new ideas and improvement

“What is the variation in one system over time?” Walter

Every process displays variation:
• Controlled variation
stable, consistent pattern of variation
“chance”, constant causes
• Special cause variation
“assignable”
pattern changes over time

Although many
layers of defence
lie between
hazards and
accidents, there
are flaws in each
layer that, if
aligned, can allow
the adverse event
to occur.
“For a long time, people were saying
that most accidents were due to human
error. And this is true in a sense, but it’s
not very helpful. It’s a bit like saying
that falls are due to gravity”
Prof. Trevor Kletz

Safe Practice Framework
for
General Practice
Lesley Mackenzie, Patient Safety Programme Manager
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Primary Care Collaborative Cohort 2 Launch
24th May 2017
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
To develop a safe practice framework which will
support staff in the delivery of safe care in General
Practice.
To raise staff awareness of
patient safety.
To support staff to determine why
and where improvement is
required in patient safety.
Our vision
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
• The safe practice framework was developed by a number of GPs and
Primary Care Commissioners and agreed by Wessex Patient Safety
Collaborative [WPSC] Primary Care Forum.
• Test specification and measurement strategy was developed to measure
the impact of any change.
• The framework was tested by GP
practices.
• Framework was reviewed following feedback
and amended.
How?
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
• A voluntary self assessment tool which aims to assess the maturity and
robustness of the patient safety systems.
• It is presented in 2 levels; good practice and outstanding practice.
• Resources about patient safety are available via links to support staff
development and understanding of patient safety.
• When completed the framework identifies
process & systems that are working well
and those which may need improvement.
The framework
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
• Feedback itself is crucial to ensure the framework is useful for you.
• The feedback we received;
• Most useful when completed as a team.
• Each team member had ownership of the good
practice that was identified and wanted to take
responsibility for what needed to change.
• Local Medical Council [LMC] Chief Executive
saw value in the framework.
• Rewritten to reflect Key Lines of Enquiry and as a 2 stage approach.
• Not an assurance tool.
Feedback!
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
• Concerns about duplication dispelled.
• Offered a planned approach to the quality work in the practice.
• The process of completing the framework as a team;
• generated healthy discussion
• raised awareness about patient safety
• started conversations
• provided an opportunity to celebrate what
was working well
• offered a shared understanding of what was still required
• encouraged the team to take ownership
The outcome
Wessex Patient Safety Collaborative
Connecting and sharing across Wessex to improve patient safety
• West of England is using the framework for your collaborative.
• Wessex keen to extend the testing phase.
• We are assessing;
• Ease of using the framework
• Content
• Impact of using the framework
• We will be seeking brief feedback
on these 3 areas to influence and
improve the design of the
framework.
Working in partnership
Looking forward to the future

What has worked from today’s session?
What tools can you take away from today to
improve your practice?
What barriers are there to you taking this forward
into your practice?
Looking after yourself
Recognise the emotional
impact of caring
Acknowledge that self care is
important
What are the ways you care
for and support yourself and
each other in your team?
