21 Serious incidents requiring investigation were defined by the Serious Incident Framework (NHS England, 2015), as : an adverse event where the consequences to patients, families and carers, staff or organisations are so significant or the potential for learning is so great, that a heightened level of response is justified. The occurrence of a serious incident demonstrates weaknesses in a system or process that need to be addressed to prevent future incidents leading to avoidable death or serious harm to patients or staff, future incidents of abuse to patients or staff, or future significant reputational damage to the organisations involved.

22 DEFINITION OF A SERIOUS INCIDENT REQUIRING INVESTIGATION (SIRI) An incident resulting in one of the following: Unexpected or avoidable death of one or more patients, staff, visitors or members of the public. Unexpected or avoidable injury to one or more people that has resulted in serious harm (recently widened to include any FALL resulting in harm that requires surgical intervention) Unexpected or avoidable injury to one or more people that requires further treatment by a healthcare professional to prevent death or serious harm Allegations of abuse One of the core set of NPSA Never Events An Incident or series of incidents that prevents or threatens to prevent an organisation s ability to continue to deliver an acceptable quality of healthcare
