About this event
These meetings are an opportunity for local Healthwatch to share issues relating to patient safety and review issues which have been reported to CQC and/or escalated to HWE/CQC/other patient safety bodies.
This network arose from bringing Healthwatch together who operated in areas where there have been significant patient safety issues.
This network provides an opportunity for you to share where your Healthwatch may have identified patient safety issues, how you have raised such issues with relevant bodies, including resolution and or/escalation and how your Healthwatch holds bodies to account over patient safety matters.
