The Nuffield Department of Surgical Sciences has announced the launch of a Postgraduate Certificate (PGCert) in Patient Safety. It brings together experts in human factors, quality improvement, leadership and education to deliver an exciting series of modules to support the current safety challenges in our healthcare settings.

This new PGCert is in response to demand for greater training and support in the scientific disciplines around patient safety for those working in healthcare.

Every day staff across the NHS strive to ensure safety for their patients through work arounds and going the extra mile. The course seeks to enable students to build resilience into their healthcare systems and to understand how and why things go wrong sometimes.
