Patient involvement in patient safety: Protocol for developing an intervention using patient reports of organisational safety and patient incident reporting

摘要

BackgroundPatients have the potential to provide a rich source of information on both organisational aspects of safety and patient safety incidents. This project aims to develop two patient safety interventions to promote organisational learning about safety - a patient measure of organisational safety (PMOS), and a patient incident reporting tool (PIRT) - to help the NHS prevent patient safety incidents by learning more about when and why they occur.
