OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The conundrum of patient safety improvement. Why is it so hard?
During the last 50 years, dramatic improvements in safety have been made in industries, including energy production, rail, air transport and construction. However, the rate of accidental harm to patients from their treatment has not changed much in healthcare, despite 30 years of research.
In this lecture, Professor Peter McCulloch will explain particular problems of the healthcare environment and the challenges to developing ultra-safe care.
