Achieving Safer and Reliable Practice

This virtual workshop takes a comprehensive approach to the important area of communicating effectively with patients after they have suffered an adverse outcome. Doctors can naturally find such discussions difficult, irrespective of the causation, and may fear the consequences that can arise for them after such an outcome. They may be concerned at having to face strong patient emotional reactions and, in some cases, may have to acknowledge that an error has been made. Doctors can also be fearful that any discussion they undertake with the patient about an adverse outcome may be used against them at some future time.
