A patient has an adverse outcome, an error is identified, equipment fails, communication breaks down or the team realises a process has not worked as intended.

It is what happens next — whether the patient is safe, the right people are told, the facts are captured, the conversation is planned, follow-up occurs and the practice learns enough to prevent the same issue happening again.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"w-full my-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"py-[3px]\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eThe Clinical Incident \u0026amp; Open Disclosure Pack 2026 is a complete, practical working document for Practice Managers, Practice Owners and Clinical Leads who want a clear, consistent way to respond when things do not go to plan.
