Professor Kevin Harris, NICE's senior responsible officer for patient safety

The role of the senior responsible officer for patient safety was established to bring together strands of patient safety across NICE, providing a source of advice and oversight accessible throughout the organisation. Last week, the NICE public board meeting considered the my first annual patient safety update.

The board paper proposed NICE develops a unified approach to patient safety, integrating the excellent work already occurring in different parts of the organisation. It will build on existing structures and draw on the expertise of the Science, Evidence and Analytics Directorate to consider how new technology such as artificial intelligence could help detect patient safety signals more quickly in the future.

The work will also explore how patient safety at NICE can evolve and integrate with NICE Connect, our multiyear project which will transform the way we produce and present our guidance and the lives of people receiving care.

In view of NICE’s key role in supporting quality health and social care, a clear and accessible patient safety structure across the organisation will help improve not only our own patient safety activity, but also support learning and action in the wider health system. Patient safety is a shared value that reflects a central tenet of care: first do no harm.
