"As the National Clinical Lead for Quality and Patient Safety (QPS), I encourage you to use both the QPS Competency Navigator and this Prospectus in planning your personal and professional development for the year ahead. These resources will help you to develop your quality and patient safety knowledge and skills"
Dr Orla Healy – National Clinical Director Quality and Patient Safety
What is the Prospectus of education and learning programmes?
The Prospectus of education and learning programmes contains details of programmes covering topics such as quality improvement, incident management, open disclosure, clinical audit and human factors as well as giving information about how to connect and network with others interested in improving quality and patient safety in our health services.
This year we have re-formatted the Prospectus to align with the six core topics outlined in the Quality and Patient Safety Competency Navigator which are:
- Safety, Risk and Incident Management
- Partnering with People
- Quality and Patient Safety Culture
- Sustainability
- Communications, Teaming and Systems
- Quality Improvement and Clinical Audit
