Clinical Governance

The LPC recognises that this part of the contract will require the most effort on the part of contractors. It has produced a number of guidance notes, systems, templates and resources to ensure that local contractors can not only meet the requirements of the new contractual framework, but can also make the process one that improves their practice. Below are a number of LPC developed solutions together with nationally developed solutions:

• Locum Handbook Online System
• In-Pharmacy Confidential Information Template
• NHS Compliant Complaint Procedures (Updated September 2006)
• Staff Induction Checklist
• Audit Templates
• RPSGB Audit to Excellence - a CD-ROM with audits, tools and quality measures
• RPSGB Audit Resource document  
• RPSGB Fact Sheet 11 - Dealing with dispensing errors 
• 7 Steps to Patient Safety - NPSA guide to safer patient care
• Patient Safety Incident Reporting Forms
• Online Patient Safety Incident Reporting
• NPSA Root Cause Analysis Toolkit
• RPSGB Children Protection Guidelines
