Keeping people safe during and after COVID-19

The West of England Patient Safety Collaborative (PSC) has currently refocused its wider Patient Safety agenda to support the system wide response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This is being delivered in partnership with commissioners and wider stakeholders. For example we have worked closely with the Royal College of GPs to support development of resources regarding the use of NEWS2 in Primary Care.

This page contains useful links to many of our resources and online training events. Whilst geared towards the COVID-19 response, we recognise many of the resources below are useful for non-COVID-19 patients and equally post COVID-19 and these pages will be maintained and updated accordingly.
