The NHS at 60 – Outlining key progress on health and safety compliance, risk management and quality improvement: Part I

Healthcare expert Stuart Emslie has created a white paper for Gael Ltd, which looks back at the progress made on key issues within the NHS, such as health and safety compliance, risk management and quality improvement.

The paper examines how these issues have drawn little official attention in the NHS, but as the organisation celebrates its 60th birthday, health and safety, risk management and quality are now major topics of discussion. By reviewing their progress to date and how these issues have changed, the white paper highlights that patient safety and risk management are fundamental as the NHS goes into its sixties.

Stuart Emslie is an independent healthcare consultant and adviser to the ECRI Institute in Europe, a major international non-profit health services research organisation and collaborating centre of the World Health Organisation, and was formerly Department of Health Head of Controls Assurance for the NHS in England.
