So many doctors finding their voices to speak out about the shortcomings of a health app with potential to offer harmful advice. Not feel the need for 'safe space' to do that then? If only half as many of you could find your voices to speak out about the actual harm covered up...

I understand all need to be able to speak out, feel safe doing so. I think safe spaces would only work when accompanied by, open and transparent. Historically, it's been absent for many families. So if I'd been given full truth, would have sat in any space I needed to.

I think it would be variable. Until there is accountability, responsibility for when this doesn't happen. What is allowed will continue. That's not blame, scapegoating. To err is human, to deny, defend, delay is a choice. Families don't have a choice. Inner peace relies on truth

But we’d never know, because it’s a safe space and taking info out of it is prohibited.

Any ‘safe space’ has to be inclusive of patients and/or families or it won’t work. My perceived safety threat has never been from patients & families, it has been from senior healthcare professionals & person-centred, name, blame & shame centred incident investigations.

Even with patient/family involvement it’s not a fair playing field. The trust holds the records, knowledge, access to legal advice, access to future treatment. The patient ..?

Those issues certainly need dealing with, nurturing a safe, open culture will help. Re legal costs, most certainly not a level playing field, heavily weighted against most patients & families.

But how will we know if it’s an open culture or a black hole?

I don’t know
other than to say registered nurses are professionally obliged to advocate for patients, not employers / other HCP’s. That is what they must do and what patients should expect.3 replies 0 retweets 1 like
That may be what they 'must' do Ken, I agree, but if patients are expecting it then many will find themselves disappointed, frankly.
