It staggers me that the patronising approach to patient voices persists with structural barriers preventing patients’ insights from improving patient safety as identified in today's PHSO report - see my full response at patientsafetycommissioner.or…

What panel would wish for with magic wand:
Change current "toxic" culture of medical staff.
Stop punishing people for making mistakes.
Prioritise safety - staff say they do, but actions don't show it.
Mutual respect between clinican/patient.

Powerful stuff from @RobBehrens1884 today. Words that should be shocking but sadly describe problems that for many, are only too familiar.
"Rob Behrens told The Times he had seen cases of medical records being changed after a death and spoken to doctors who were too scared to speak out about failings in their hospitals."

On the leadership challenge, North Thanet MP @SirRogerGaleMP has told @BBCRADIOKENT : "It is the wrong thing to do. I hope and believe the PM will get enough of a majority to remain leader. MPs should be voting in the best interests of the country."
