Today, Monday, 7th April, sees the launch of Martha’s Rule at CHFT. The national patient safety initiative allows families, carers, patients or colleagues to raise urgent concerns if they feel a patient’s condition is worsening and that it hasn’t been recognised by the healthcare team.

Our intranet page has all the information colleagues need, including resources such as wellbeing check-in questions, and a decision scoring matrix.

Martha's Rule applies to both adults and children. Our website page has also been updated.
