Events

Use this section to add information regarding any significant events that have occurred and the audits that followed. A significant event is any unintended or unexpected event, which could or did lead to the harm of one or more patients. This includes incidents which did not cause harm but could have done, or where the event should have been prevented. Throughout the year you should be collating information regarding events which demonstrate your ability to learn and develop when faced with challenging circumstances. The overview pages shows the Significant Events that have been added to this appraisal, and you are able to sort the items alphabetically according to title, by date and by CPD score.
