Closing the Gap in Patient Safety Programme
Safer Care Pathways in Mental Health: Project Overview
Presented by Tim BrysonProject Manager
Closing the Gap In Patient Safety Programme
• The Health Foundation is an independent charity working to improve the quality of healthcare in the UK
• Two priority areas: i) patient safety and ii) person-centred care
• CtGPS - £4 million to support ten projects to implement and evaluate tested, evidence-based patient safety interventions at scale
• Substantial two year projects
Project partners
•Hertfordshire Partnership University NHS FT (lead)•All mental health trusts in East of England•Engineering Design Centre, Cambridge University•University of East Anglia•University of Hertfordshire
Safer Care Pathways in MH – Project Aims
• To address patient safety hazards and create safer and more reliable MH care pathways
• To enable sustainable learning and capacity in patient safety skills and tools
• Five project sites: one in each mental health trust in East of England
• Project sites to include dementia care pathway and adult and older adult mental health care pathways
Safer Care Pathways in MH – Project Focus
• Shifting the balance towards prospective• Focus on people, culture and systems• Avoidable deaths and harm – suicide, self-harm, falls,
medication errors, harm from aggression• Improved safety communication between staff,
service users and carers• Risk enablement
Project Intervention Package
1. Prospective hazard analysis (PHA) tool (CLAHRC – Cambridge University EDC)
2. Human factors training & implementation (L&D NHS FT/Hertfordshire University approach)
3. Service improvement methods (e.g. PDSA cycles)

Project Evaluation
Evaluation questions• How mature is the risk
management approach ?• What is the safety culture ?• How useful and useable are the
interventions ?• What is learnt ?• What is the Impact on patient
safety and outcomes ?
Evaluation data
• Key informant interviews• Patient safety data – risk
registers, datix and patient experience reports
• Safety culture survey questionnaire
• Training experience questionnaire• Reflective diaries
• Observations
Project Benefits
• Completed PHA for each care pathway (links to ‘Sign Up to Safety’ assessment)
• Creation of a cohort of PHA trained, and human factors trained, patient safety champions in each trust
• Implementation of a minimum of 1 service improvement project within each care pathway site
• Safety culture feedback, and strengthened safety culture in the care pathway
• Shared learning across region and nationally
Project Governance
• Project board involving all partners, and including service user and carer advisers, and EoE Strategic Clinical Network
• PID approved by project board• Six monthly and final reports to Health Foundation
