Dear colleagues,
In November 2023, BMJ Quality and safety published a research paper analysing patient safety in remote primary care consultations. The research conducted by an Oxford University research team, utilised data from NHS bodies, including NHS Resolution, NHS England and the Health Safety Science Investigation Bureau (HSSIB), to triangulate patient outcomes and identify where many of the risks lie in the remote delivery of primary care services.
The paper provides clear practical steps for clinicians, organisations and patients to make remote consultations in primary care even safer.
On 27 March 2024 at 12:30-14:00, NHS Resolution will be hosting a free virtual forum where you can join us to hear about the findings, directly from the lead researcher and lead reviewer , Dr Rebecca Payne and Professor Trisha Greenhalgh.
This event is likely to be of interest to all clinical and non-clinical primary care professionals involved in front-line patient care and those who are involved in commissioning and setting up remote consultations.
Therefore, please feel free to share this email and flyer with clinical, operational, legal, risk, patient safety and quality improvement colleagues at all levels within your networks.

The Primary Care Dermatology society (PCDS) was set up by GPs in 1994 to support dermatology education in primary care and redress the gap which saw dermatology account for 30% of GP consultations but not an extensive part of medical education. The PCDS website and society has grown and is recognised to provide comprehensive guidance, education events, tools, patient information leaflets and resources to its 4,000 GP and primary care health professional members. NHS Resolution has completed a review of dermatology claims within the last 5 years to examine the themes and trends within primary care.
On 22 November 2023, from 12:30-2pm, NHS Resolution and PCDS are hosting a free virtual forum to share the highlights from our analysis of dermatology claims, and discuss the risks, opportunities and challenges affecting lesion and medical dermatology management in primary care.
We will be joined by Dr Tim Cunliffe (PCDS) and Majid Hassan (Capsticks) alongside Michelle Stafford (NHS Resolution).

We are inviting everyone who supports those with CED to join a community of practice, the first meeting of which will be on Tuesday, 18 July, from 10am – noon via Teams. A community of practice is a group of people who share a common concern or interest and come together to fulfil both individual and group goals.
We are inviting anyone who works with people with Complex Emotional Difficulties to join us for training, reflective practice, and an opportunity to network and share their experiences. The session will include an hour of training, followed by an hour of informal conversation and trauma-informed drop-in.
