We would hugely appreciate you considering voting for our Q project :Co-designing maternity investigations systems using a Human Factors approach led by Lizzie Crisp,  @paulbowie and Al Ross

Maternity investigation procedures, processes and models have not been subject to a systematic Human Factors assessment. A team of Staffordshire University Maternity and Human Factors experts have designed a project that aims to collaborate with local partners to co-design local NHS governance practices in response to patient safety incidents using a Human Factors approach. This will enable the project team to produce a guide that can be deployed and provide the NHS with an evidence-based approach to improve local learning responses to patient safety incidents. It is anticipated that improvement in local governance systems and processes will result in a more positive learning culture with a view to reducing avoidable harm.
