Always Review and Report consultation paper

See link: http://www.hqsc.govt.nz/news-and-events/news/1499/

The HQSC is seeking  the sector’s views on a possible amendment to the national reportable events policy to make it clear there is a subset of highly preventable events that should always be reported and reviewed as a serious adverse event, regardless of whether harm has occurred.

This consultation paper suggests the introduction of a subset of incidents called ‘Always Review and Report’ to be reviewed as serious adverse events so we can learn from them, and put in place processes to prevent them happening again
