They
represent
key
stakeholders
both
in
nhs
trusts
and
private
providers,
and
I'm
really
pleased
that
they're
willing
to
give
their
time
and
their
knowledge
today
to
make
this
an
effective
winning
event
for
you
before
the
event
we
sent
you
an
evaluation
form.
I
think
you
should
have
received
that
on
friday
and
it
is
posted
in
the
chat,
and
the
first
question
asks
you
to
score
your
knowledge
before
the
event.
So,
if
you
can
completing
this,
now
would
be
really
helpful,
and
I
think
it's
also
important
to
say
for
those
of
you
who
would
like
one.

B

We
have
a
scheduled,
10-minute
break
part
way
through
the
morning.
However,
please
take
care
of
yourselves
in
any
way
you
need
to
at
any
time
we
recognize
the
sector
is
under
great
pressure
currently,
so
this
event
is
being
recorded
and
will
be
shared
afterwards
for
those
unable
to
make
today,
and
it
will
also
be
shared
on
cqc's
youtube
channel.
B

C
Thanks
very
much
helen
and
good
morning
to
you
all,
it's
great
privilege
actually
to
participate.
In
this
event,
I'd
first
like
to
place
on
record
my
enormous
thanks
to
the
cqc
to
and
helen
and
all
the
cqc
team.
For
arranging
this
event.
It's
really
it's
really
really
important
that
we
bring
out
these
important
issues
and
we
discuss
them.
C
It
breaks
all
of
our
hearts,
I'm
sure
when
we
hear
these
dreadful
stories
of
abuse
across
various
sectors
in
our
country,
whether
it's
sport,
education,
the
arts,
the
nhs
and
the
ambulance
sector,
I've
devoted
my
entire
career
of
35
years
to
the
nhs
into
the
ambulance
service
and
nothing
hurts
more
than
hearing
these
dreadful
stories,
particularly
when
they
affect
the
ambulance
sector,
our
staff
and
sometimes
even
patients.
It's
just
wrong
and
we
should
all
be
outraged
when
we
hear
these
terrible
stories
of
abuse.
C
And
it's
right
that
we
recognize
the
important
roles
that
we
all
have
in
supporting
one
another
and
supporting
new
staff
as
they
commence
their
careers.
Recently,
we
heard
examples
of
new
new
staff
student
paramedics
university
students
being
being
the
sort
of
risk
that
they've
been
exposed
exposed
to,
and
it's
just
wrong.
C
We
want
the
ambulance
service
in
our
country
to
continue
to
be
the
best
in
the
world,
and
in
order
to
do
that,
we
need
to
be
able
to
attract
the
very
best
people.
We
need
to
be
able
to
protect
all
of
our
colleagues
when
they're
at
work
and,
of
course,
when
they're
off
duty-
and
we
also
need
people
to
be
able
to
give
of
their
best
every
day
and
there's
a
really
strong
evidence
that
would
assert
that
if
colleagues
are
distracted
by
whatever
stresses
are
being
are
being
present,
then
individuals
are
distracted.
C
They
will
not
able
to
give
of
their
best
every
day
and
therefore
patient
care
could
sometimes
be
compromised.
So
it's
absolutely
right
that
we
create
and
sustain
an
environment
at
work
and
out
of
work
whereby
our
people
are
constantly
and
always
able
to
give
up
their
best
and
therefore
provide
the
very
best
care
for
patients.
So
the
role
model,
I
think,
really
important
and
maintaining
confidence
in
the
ambulance
service
for
the
public
and,
of
course,
for
our
patients
is
all
really
really
important.
C
So
again
on
behalf
of
the
national
team
at
mhs,
england
and
nhs
improvement,
a
really
really
big.
Thank
you
to
all
of
you
for
participating.
In
today's
event,
I'm
sure
we'll
all
find
it
really
interesting
and
all
of
us
be
able
to
find
something
to
be
able
to
take
away
to
our
respective
organizations
to
improve
the
service
that
we
provide
to
our
patients
and
again,
a
big
thanks
to
all
of
the
expert
speakers
as
well.
That
will
be
participating
in
today's
event,
you're
doing
a
great
job
and
I'm
enormously
proud
of
all
of
you.
C
There
but
very
happy
to
take
any
questions
during
today's
event,
and
it's
now
my
very
great
pleasure
to
introduce
the
chair
of
the
association
of
ambulance
chief
executives,
darren
mockery.
Thanks
very
much.
D
D
This
is
a
membership
organization
and
of
all
the
nhs
ambulance
services
in
the
uk
and
as
part
of
our
vision,
is
to
champion
and
deliver
improvement
across
the
sector.
So
that's
why
I'm
absolutely
delighted
to
be
part
of
today's
workshop
next
slide.
Please
ace
is
supporting
the
uk
ambulance
sector
to
be
providers
of
choice,
employers
of
choice
and
partners
of
choice,
and
we
recognize
that
we
need
to
do
all
we
can
to
ensure
the
safety
of
our
staff
and
patients
next
slide.
Please.
D
We're
not
starting
from
scratch,
however.
Our
national
ambulance
safeguarding
advisory
group
undertakes
work
on
behalf
of
the
sector
and
reports
into
our
national
quality
governance
and
risk
group.
The
group
share
best
practice,
review
data
and
benchmark
and
work
in
sharing,
learning
and
improvement
across
the
sector.
D
D
Well,
it's
important,
because
we
must
do
all
we
can
to
protect
our
staff
and
patients
and
provide
them
with
the
best
possible
working
environment
and
providing
the
best
possible
care
we
can
so
we
welcome
the
work.
The
ckc
are
doing
shining
a
light
on
this
important
issue.
It's
great
to
see
us
all
come
together
today.
We
know
that
we
need
to
work
together,
because
you
know
our
staff
work
across
the
sector,
whether
that's
nhs,
whether
it's
independent
or
other
organizations,
and
we
know
that
patients
also
move
across
organizational
boundaries
too.
D
We're
going
to
hand
over
now,
I
think,
to
al
hausen,
chair
of
the
independent
ambulance
association.
Thank
you.
E
It's
really
good
to
see
so
many
people
present
today
shining
a
light
on
what
is
quite
a
sobering
subject.
It's
one.
We
need
to
understand
and
do
more
about
I've
worked
in
the
ambulance
sector
for
over
30
years
and
have
been
involved
with
the
association
since
it
was
formed
in
2012,
taking
on
the
leadership
in
2016..
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
E
F
Good
morning,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
thank
you
for
inviting
me
here
today.
It's
been
a
long
time
in
the
coming.
This
conference,
myself
and
helen
have
been
really
looking
forward
for
this
opportunity
to
get
safeguarding
out
there
on
the
map,
so
to
speak.
So
my
first
slide
is
really
just
to
explain
where
nhs
england
come
into
this,
and
particularly
my
role.
F
F
F
F
If
you,
if
you
manage
to
have
a
look
at
that,
it
is
online
that
document,
the
chief
nursing
officer
in
england
ruth
may
has
accountability
for
safeguarding
for
for
health
and
she
delegates
that
to
the
regional
chief
nurses,
we
consider
ourselves
a
critical
friend.
We
do
a
lot
of
work
in
conjunction
in
partnership
with
our
other
agencies
and
other
statutory
bodies.
We
also
look
and
support
areas
of
concern
from
safeguarding
points
of
view
and
a
safeguarding
lens.
F
We
have
a
look
at
what's
going
on
in
organizations
and
we
are
that
critical
friend
we're
not
there
to
apportion
blame,
we're
there
to
give
that
support
and
support
changes
if
they
are
required
and
that
moves
us
into
support
and
improvement
in
practice.
What
we
want
to
think
about
is
preempting
areas
that
could
go
wrong.
We
want
to
try
and
get
there
first
look
at
what
could
go
wrong
and
support
that
improvement.
To
ensure
things
don't
go
wrong.
F
We
need
and
ensure
a
safeguarding,
effective
practice
across
all
our
health
systems
and
that's
no
easy
task,
so
our
job
is
to
make
sure
that
we
have
staff
competent
and
are
able
to
work
in
safeguarding,
and
one
of
our
colleagues
mentioned
that
before
safeguarding
isn't
just
when
you're
a
qualified
member
of
staff,
it
isn't
when
you
start
your
career,
it
isn't
when
you
finish
your
career.
F
It
goes
throughout
the
whole
of
your
career
and
it
also
goes
throughout
your
personal
business
in
2018,
nhsei
and
cqc
were
asked
to
set
a
task
and
finish
group
and,
as
you
can
imagine,
it's
now
2021
and
the
finish
of
this
group
is
still
going
on.
So
it's
not
finished
at
all,
and
we
were
looking
at
working
together
on
sexual
safeguarding
in
the
ambulance
sector,
based
on
a
very
serious,
significant
incident.
F
F
But
we
also
recognise
that
we
are
people
living
in
society
and
some
of
us
may
have
experienced
some
very
distressing
situations.
So
please
please
take
time
to
look
after
yourself.
There
are
some
links
on
this
slide
where
you
can
get
some
advice
and
support.
You
can
also
talk
to
your
safeguarding
lead
or
people
like
myself
in
the
region
to
provide
that
support.
