Patient Safety Incident Response Framework in DCIQ and DatixWeb
What is PSIRF?
Patient Safety Incident Response Framework, PSIRF, is the new framework that has replaced the SIF (Serious Incident Framework), with the aim to encourage meaningful learnings and improvements from past incidents to improve patient safety.
PSIRF outlines the new way in which healthcare providers should respond to patient safety incidents, bringing a change in mindset that focuses on maximising learning from incidents. PSIRF removes the requirement for all/only ‘serious incidents’ to be investigated, allowing for providers to now investigate incidents that they believe learnings can be made from.
On this page you can find RLDatix and NHS England resources to help you implement this new framework both at your organisation and in DCIQ or DatixWeb.

PSIRF inside DCIQ and DatixWeb
DCIQ and DatixWeb fully support PSIRF, enabling organisations to implement PSIRF directly in the incident review form so you can evaluate the incidents against your PSIRP and take the appropriate course of action.
Both solution’s customizability and flexibility allows you to implement PSIRF in the solutions in the way that best suits your organisation and your own PSIRF processes.
