When raising concerns about patient care, I was repeatedly asked to attend mediation. Sound familiar? 3 senior managers @thechristie were included in this email. They all went along with it. #patientsafety #whistleblowers

I would drop ‘leadership’. Too often if we rely on our leaders, we’re left disappointed. If our leaders aren’t actioning concerns, why should we? We need genuine partnership between managers and clinicians, and the ability to listen to each other, really listen.

@TheChristieNHS ⁩ ⁦ @CQCpressoffice ⁩ how many exactly is a ‘minority’ in a Trust that employs >2,000 staff. Terrifying that this toxic culture of Execs prioritising reputation over patient safety continues despite the report of 2022. A responsive Trust? 🤔

So where is the accountability we ask? Simply requesting a ‘culture review’ doesn’t quite cut it. Your leadership influences your culture. Your leadership has been reviewed and it’s not good enough for patients, it’s not good enough for staff @TheChristieNHS . Time for change .

Huge pressure on comms professionals to protect reputation at all costs; even when values are compromised. The Christie report revealed this can compromise patient safety & organisational integrity when reputation management is the core purpose of comms rather than communication.

External facing: We thank the RN for raising concerns; we care for our staff. Internal facing: She’s a liar. Undertone; and we’ll call all of you liars too if you raise concerns. And people are shocked when they learn that the NHS culture is toxic for whistleblowers?! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Simple but thought provoking . . The sad fact is it’s usually because delirium is poorly understood, and there isn’t the resources to manage delirium well in hospital, such as HCPs with the knowledge, skills and simply time to manage delirium well . We must strive to do better

@ProfDonnaHall If you could see the internal positive toxicity that has been put on show to @TheChristieNHS staff since the CQC report, you would be sad but not shocked. Via forums, letters, grand rounds- it has everything- gaslighting, denial, flippancy, even mockery of the CQC

Sometimes I wonder if “whistleblowers” were renamed “speak up champions” would we be treated differently? Organisations could stop spending public money on multiple lawyers, crisis comms professionals, nondisclosure agreements & just listen; really listen to what staff experience

4. The forums were held in TRUST-HQ, in GLASS-WALLED ROOMS, with a small max capacity, despite the auditorium being empty 5. The Chief Nurse and Deputy Chief Nurse did a “WALK-BY” at the beginning of the junior nurse forum

@KenZeroHarm Too often hierarchy is used to control and quash those lower in the structure. Hierarchy can be used positively, too often, it isn’t. Partnership = equality.
