3. – why it’s still important
Patient safety
– why it’s still important
More than one in ten people admitted to hospital are harmed unintentionally by its care.
There is a one in 300 chance of accidental death through errors in care.

4. Moving care from the board to the ward to home
1000 Lives Plus is committed to
accelerating the pace of change with
an urgency to spread the new ways
of working so that they become
best practice everywhere –
it’s what our patients have the
right to expect.

5. A national programme
1000 Lives Plus will align with several other national programmes in the five year Strategic Framework for NHS Wales
It draws together existing work from the 1000 Lives Campaign and Intelligent Targets.

8. Embedding best practice
“1000 Lives Plus is designed to
ensure that the new ways of
working are embedded in
everyday practice, enabling
everyone to meet the shared
vision of putting patients and
patient safety above all else.”
Dr Tony Jewell, Chief Medical Officer for Wales
1000 Lives Plus - Making patient safety a priority

our patients and reminds me of why I went
into the NHS – to save lives.”

10. Supporting organisations
1000 Lives Plus will support organisations by:
Providing tools, techniques and interventions to reduce local harm and mortality
Delivering mini collaboratives for each new programme area – which will be phased in over the next twelve months
1000 Lives Plus aims to provide organisations with the tools, techniques and interventions to support the achievement of local harm and mortality reduction.
To support organisations in implementing new areas of work introduced as part of the 5 year programme, 1000 Lives Plus will deliver mini-collaboratives for each new area. We are conscious that Health Boards and Trusts will need to manage the resulting work load and therefore the mini-collaboratives will be phased (then go into details on different programmes?)

18. If we can improve
care for one patient,
then we can do it for ten.
If we can do it for ten,
then we can do it for a 100.
If we can do it for a 100,
we can do it for a 1000
And if we can do it for a 1000,
we can do it for everyone in Wales.
