This conference focuses on a practical guide to effective records management and improving health and care documentation. There will be a focus on educating and training frontline staff in good documentation, records standards and requirements for record keeping, and learning from complaints, claims and coroner’s inquests to improve record keeping practice. The conference will discuss underlying standards and principles and include guidelines on topics such as legal, professional, organisational and individual responsibilities when managing records. We will hear from a Coroner on their perspective on documentation on record keeping and how improvements could be made. There will be an extended focus on ensuring records are patient focused and involving patients in their health and care record. The conference will also discuss ensuring you are compliant with the new Personalised care planning standards which came into force on 31st January 2024.
“Everyone within a health and care organisation is responsible for managing records appropriately. It is therefore important that you understand how records should be managed - how records are created, maintained and disposed of appropriately.”
Records Management Code of Practice NHS England December 2023
“Personalised care planning standards will help to enable people to manage their own care, with the support of a wide range of services including GPs, hospitals, occupational therapy and social care. This new standard will help citizens and health and care professionals get the right information when they need it, in order to personalise care, and improve the experience for the patient, their carer and their families.
