Recommendation (the committee's words)
NHS staff, injured patients and families need greater support in dealing with the fallout from clinical negligence cases. We recommend that every hospital should have adequate numbers of staff trained in “just culture” practices to reduce confrontation and relationship breakdown between injured patients, their relatives, and bereaved families.
