and failed to improve, and therefore often failed to safeguard mothers and their babies at one of the most important times in their lives.”
This one day masterclass will focus on the report and its conclusions. We will assess how this fits into the new Patient Safety Syllabus and safety within healthcare organisations. We will look at how leadership skills and human factors can be used to make maternity services safer.

THURSDAY 17th NOVEMBER 2022

This masterclass will review developments in the field of ACEs since it’s introduction by Fellitti in 2000.

This has raised questions about the value of the ACEs concept, and its future usefulness in practice, particularly as a screening tool, in child and adult practice. This course will reflect on the current position, and future directions, and make recommendations about prevention, approaches to heal the traumatic responses associated with ACEs, deal with the every -day stress associated, and promote resilience.
