NHS England and NHS Improvement have launched a new strategy on patient safety today. The strategy aims to be the ‘golden thread’ running through healthcare and sets out what the NHS will do to continuously improve patient safety.

The BMA and the RCP have published decision-making guidance for doctors on clinically-assisted nutrition and hydration for patients who lack the capacity to consent.

RCP president Professor Jane Dacre outlines how putting social care in the spotlight could improve the fortunes of the NHS.

The RCP deputy head of strategy and policy, Alex Callaghan, analyses the impact of the NHS' mooted financial ‘reset’.

This live streamed event on Thursday 2 June (3–4.15pm) will give insight into the improvement work taking place at Future Hospital development sites.
