Patient safety has been a key priority for this Government and we have made huge strides to ensure patients have access to high quality healthcare.<\/p>

<\/p>

Following the Queen\u2019s Speech in June, the Government committed to publishing a bill to establish a new independent body to investigate serious patient safety incidents in the National Health Service, with a focus on learning.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Health Service Safety Investigations Bill was laid in draft in Parliament on 14 September 2017 and will undergo a period of pre-legislative scrutiny. Following pre-legislative scrutiny, introduction of the Bill will depend on parliamentary time being available.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4545", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy"} } , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Lord O'Shaughnessy"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-10-31", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-10-31T15:05:55.337Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-10-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Patients: Safety"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "2"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25277", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Lords"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask Her Majesty's Government when they expect to bring forward the Patient Safety Bill announced in the Queen's Speech in June.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/2024", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Hunt of Kings Heath"} } , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Lord Hunt of Kings Heath"} ], "uin" : "HL2201"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/758760", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/758760/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Notes: <\/em><\/p>

<\/p>

  1. From April 2014, NHS England published provisional never events data as monthly updates throughout each financial year. Each report updates the previous month\u2019s data as information on never events is reported or amended.<\/li>
  2. The provisional monthly never events data summaries for 2015/16 have been drawn from the STEIS system. Each report includes all Serious Incidents reported as occurring within the indicated timeframe, where they are designated by their reporters as never events at the date the data was extracted. Please note these reports are provisional data and subject to change.<\/li>
  3. As of 1 April 2016, patient safety is now part of NHS Improvement. Never events data publications for 2016/17 financial year and onwards will be published by NHS Improvement.<\/li><\/ol>

    It is for health and social care providers to develop local nutrition and hydration policies and there are a number of best practice resources and guidelines available to help providers do this.<\/p>

    Nursing staff understand the importance of proper nutrition and will follow guidelines in assessing patients for their ability to swallow safely. From this they can make judgements about a patient\u2019s capability to eat and drink safely and adequately, which will include taking into account whether they are heavily medicated or not.<\/p>

    The National Patient Safety Agency and the Royal College of Nursing published a series of factsheets in 2009, setting out the key characteristics of good nutritional care in healthcare environments.<\/p>

    http://www.nrls.npsa.nhs.uk/resources/?entryid45=59865<\/a><\/p>

    It includes the Council of Europe 10 key characteristics of good nutritional care in hospitals, which recommends that all patients are screened on admission to identify the patients who are malnourished or at risk of becoming malnourished; all patients are re-screened weekly; and all patients have a care plan which identifies their nutritional care needs and how they are to be met.<\/p>

    The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Quality standard for nutrition support in adults<\/em><\/p>

    www.nice.org.uk/Guidance/QS24<\/a><\/p>

    defines clinical best practice for adults in hospital and the community who are at risk of malnutrition. And NICE Nutrition support in adults: Oral nutrition support, enteral tube feeding and parenteral nutrition<\/em><\/p>

    www.nice.org.uk/guidance/cg32<\/a><\/p>

    offers best practice advice to help healthcare professionals correctly identify people in hospital and the community who need nutrition support, and enable them to choose and deliver the most appropriate nutrition support at the most appropriate time.<\/p>

    Currently, NHS England has a leadership role for patient safety in the National Health Service and supports providers to identify, understand and manage risks that might affect the safety of patients. The primary source for identifying risks is the National Reporting and Learning System (NRLS). The NRLS operates as a database and holds over 1.4 million locally reported patient safety incidents. These are reviewed to help address the identified issues or risks in the NHS. NHS England alerts NHS trusts of emerging patient safety risks via the National Patient Safety Alerting System \u2013 a three-stage alerting process which ensures the timely sharing of relevant safety information. The system also encourages information sharing between organisations so that examples of best practice can be widely adopted.<\/p>

    NHS trusts are expected to review their own patient safety incidents. The revised Serious Incident Framework published in March 2015 has sought to simplify the incident management process and ensure that serious incidents are identified correctly, investigated thoroughly and, most importantly, learned from to prevent the likelihood of similar incidents happening again.<\/p>

    The NHS standard contract also stipulates that providers must consider and respond to the recommendations arising from any audit, Serious Incident report or Patient Safety Incident report.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3988", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Ben Gummer"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Ipswich"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Ben Gummer"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-01-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-01-11T09:46:58.877Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-01-05", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Patients: Safety"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps are being taken to ensure that all NHS trusts are (a) identifying patient safety incidents, (b) conducting full investigations to identify the causes of such incidents and (c) implementing measures to prevent recurring such incidents.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4077", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Emma Reynolds"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wolverhampton North East"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Emma Reynolds"} ], "uin" : "21014"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/427713", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/427713/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

    No central research has been commissioned to assess the impact of safeguarding policies for patients on the behaviour of nurses in attending to the needs of patients. Research may have been commissioned at a local level; however, this data is not collected centrally.<\/p>

    The Care Act 2014, which placed adult safeguarding on a statutory footing for the first time, made clear the responsibilities of agencies in relation to adult safeguarding with a greater focus on the prevention of abuse and neglect.<\/p>

    The Department is clear in statutory guidance supporting the Care Act that workers across a wide range of organisations, and not just those in frontline health and social care roles, need to be vigilant on behalf of those unable to protect themselves.<\/p>

    Commissioners and providers will have clear policies and procedures that set out the roles of nurses and all other staff in relation to safeguarding and the training and support that is required in order for them to fulfil those roles.<\/p>

    The Department and NHS England\u2019s Compassion in Practice nursing strategy was published in December 2012 and is based around six core values: Care, Compassion, Competence, Communication, Courage, and Commitment. The vision aims to embed these values, known as the 6C\u2019s, in all nursing, midwifery and care-giving settings throughout the NHS and social care to improve care for patients.

    Responsibility for issuing patient safety advice to the healthcare system in the form of patient safety alerts transferred from the National Patient Safety Agency to NHS England in June 2012. Between June 2012 \u2013 December 2013 one Patient Safety Alert (NHS/PSA/W/2013/001: \u2018Placement devices for nasogastric tube insertion DO NOT replace initial position checks\u2019) was issued on 5 December 2013. To date, all providers have reported this alert as either \u2018complete\u2019 or \u2018action not required\u2019.<\/p>

    <\/p>

    <\/p>

    <\/p>

    During the period in question NHS England maintained a constant review of patient safety incidents reported to the National Reporting and Learning System involving death and severe harm and, had an urgent patient safety issue needing alerting been identified, an alert would have been issued.<\/p>
