Our work will continue to focus on avoiding harm or death caused by unrecognised or untreated deterioration in a patient’s condition wherever they are being cared for.

We have engaged with large numbers of healthcare workers from various professions to establish a foundation of leadership and capability for improvement across the maternity and neonatal system.

The Medicines Safety Improvement Programme (MedSIP) is led nationally and commissioned by our national patient safety team.

We are driving work around four national priorities, including COPD care bundle, Emergency Laparotomy care bundle, PReCePT and Emergency department safety checklist, with KSS AHSN leading the national delivery of COPD and ELC.

We are working with NHS Mental Health Trusts across Kent, Surrey and Sussex to improve the safety and outcomes of mental health care as part of the National Mental Health Safety Improvement Programme (MHSIP).
