Implementing the Duty of Candour and PSIRF with Empathy

This popular training day covers the must do’s and the grey areas around the statutory Duty of Candour, with a strong emphasis on going beyond mere compliance and delivering the duty of candour in a meaningful way for patients and families and for the staff involved and the organisation. It has been updated to directly support the successful implementation of the PSIRF guidance and the ‘Harmed Patient Pathway’.

The training is delivered by Peter Walsh, the ex-Chief Executive of AvMA, who is well known for his pioneering work on the Duty of Candour, and Carolyn Cleveland, who specialises in training professionals in dealing with difficult emotions and conversations and doing so with empathy, understanding perspectives.
