Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF)

We have developed a Patient Safety Incident Response Plan (PSIRF) in agreement with the Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Group to ensure we respond to such incidents and undertake investigations as appropriate.

The four key aims of PSIRF are:

1. Compassionate engagement and involvement of those affected by patient safety incidents
2. Application of a range of system-based approaches to learning from patient safety incidents
3. Considered and proportionate responses to patient safety incidents
4. Supportive oversight focused on strengthening response system functioning and improvement

We analysed our current systems to enhance our understanding of patient safety processes, and this allowed us to use these insights to develop our Patient Safety Incident Response Plan (PSIRF).
