This powerful letter is why HSSIB must NOT be force-merged into the CQC
The APPG on Patient Safety is planning to block the abolition of @theHSSIB and we have the lead letter in @thetimes today, signed by a cross-party group of MPs. I thought you would be interested in this story from The Times:
Healthcare safety and guarding patients' data. thetimes.com/article/ad3cead…

“At a time when families want honesty and real change, we should be strengthening the HSSIB’s role and ensuring evidence based safety recommendations are properly tracked and implemented, not weakening the very independence that makes it credible”

NEW: The chief executive of the Care Quality Commission has quit following the announcement of an independent inquiry into maternity care at Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust.
