'Hospital on Trial' - Court Room Drama

Come and decide whether your healthcare colleagues are guilty or not guilty!

In a time of unprecedented pressure within the health system on safety and quality, this session brings to life a court room 'drama' hosted by lawyers and with real medical professionals giving evidence, based around an all too common medication error. The session delivers a genuine court room experience to highlight how such errors can be perceived outside the hospital environment, with strong messaging around consequence, set within an entertaining scene. The session was run by DAC Beachcroft LLP, a leading international law firm providing advice within the public and independent health and social care sector since the inception of the NHS, now pre-eminent in both strategic and operational advice in an evolving health system. Witnesses giving evidence are leading professionals at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust.

This session was one of the most well received ever hosted at an ISQua Conference.
