Second Victim website

By Uncategorised, Websites

Healthcare employees who have experienced a significant personal or professional impact as a result of a patient safety incident can be referred to as a ‘Second Victim’.

To help minimise the ‘Second Victim’ experience, we devised the ‘Second Victim website’, which is a rich resource to support individuals, teams and organisations, based on our extensive research to date.

The ‘Second Victim website’ is currently endorsed by 22 national organisations, including the BMA, Royal College of General Practitioners, Royal College of Obstetricians & Gynaecologists, Royal College of Anaesthetists and Emergency Medicine, Unison and NHS Practitioner Health. To date, the site has had 77,800 total views with an international reach.

Learn Together: Supporting Involvement during Patient Safety Incident Investigations

By Websites

After a safety event in healthcare, NHS Trusts may conduct a Patient Safety Incident Investigation. Listening to and valuing different perspectives within a Patient Safety Incident Investigation can support patients and families to heal, and can support organisations to learn.

We have developed resources that were designed together with people who have experienced patient safety incidents and investigations, to provide you with the information and support you might need.

Your Care Needs You! is designed to empower, encourage and support patients and their families to know more and do more in hospital, so that people have the skills and confidence to manage their own health and care more safely when they return home. There are resources to guide patients and families through the key things to do in hospital to prepare for living at home again.
