Hybrid event by Great Ormond Street Hospital Learning Academy.
Join the first Paediatric Patient Safety & Human Factors Conference hosted by Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.
Taking a patient-centred approach, this event will bring together experts to consider the challenges of patient safety in paediatrics. It will explore human behaviours that influence safety in healthcare as well as ways to improve safety for children and young people. It will also discuss ways to support patients, families and colleagues when things go wrong and how we can learn from these events.
Event objectives:
- To share knowledge and develop a better understanding of the impact of compassion on patient safety in paediatrics.
- To discuss the challenges in patient safety, ways to support families and colleagues when challenges persist and how to learn from events to reduce the likelihood of harm.
