The latest national emergency laparotomy report is out and we’ve done it again. Lowest mortality in the UK for emergency laparotomy. A huge multidisciplinary effort @SteppingHillMOT @stockport_surg @StockportICU @ED_SteppingHill @StockportNHS

Replying to @OhmeEV
@OhmeEV for 6 weeks I have had issues with my epod going offline after scheduling a charge. Minimal to zero charge. After power cycling more times than I can remember, multiple remote fixes & new epod the exact same issues remain.

@OhmeEV hours spent holding on chat, sending emails and on the phone. After 6 weeks -‘the ‘technical team are looking into this and will contact you’ does not help whatsoever. I appreciate the initial efforts made however no answer to 1 single question raised

@OhmeEV used the epod without issue for 12 months and suddenly it stops working on scheduled charging? I’m also aware of a lot of other people having similar issues via forums.

Positive patient identification

We've undertaken several investigations where misidentification of patients has been an important part of a patient safety event. This national learning report collates findings and identifies how...

Team briefing is a good opportunity to improve safety, delegate tasks & discuss 'what ifs'? Can also make a ‘safe space’ confirming zero tolerance for inappropriate behaviour incl. sexual misconduct Our latest study shows variable attitudes to briefings authors.elsevier.com/a/1iYU6…
