Further to the announcements regarding the 30 minute handover process, to commence on the 6th June, the Trust and UNISON met yesterday (1st) to discuss what is required prior to go live implementation.
Our next steps will be to work with stakeholders to finalise processes and procedures, this will include discussions with colleagues in EOC, Staffside and our acute trusts to ensure robust processes are in place to define the escalation actions required.
Both the Trust and Staffside recognise the need to provide assurance around clinical responsibility if this situation arises and the safety of staff and patients.
