The Deteriorating Patient – Ha

The Safer Care Through Early Warning Scores programme has achieved great things during the last 18 months. The National Early Warning Score (NEWS) is now used in all secondary care, mental health and community settings across the region, and good progress is being made for it to be routinely used in primary care.

The focus of the programme is now to reduce the risk to patient safety at the interfaces of care by considering and facilitating the communication of NEWS at patient handover across their care pathway.

This event, run by the West of England Academic Health Science Network, will focus on this theme aiming to learn and share from experiences across the region and to agree standards and methods of communication of NEWS between organisations, underpinned by quality improvement science and methodologies.
