Industry and Partners Network
National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Patient Safety Research Collaborations (PSRCs) are NHS and universities partnerships in England that undertake high quality translational, applied and health services research on patient safety that addresses strategic patient safety challenges within the health and care system.
Mission
Our Aims
The PSRCs aim to develop, validate and test innovations, approaches and interventions that have the potential to lead to improvements in patient safety and the safety of health and care services.
To support translation into practice, NHS/university partnerships consider the eventual setting where new interventions, innovations, approaches will be delivered and the wide range of services (including primary, secondary, tertiary, mental health and social care), settings, pathways, patients and service users.
A key emphasis underpinning all research themes is the reduction in inequalities in the safety of healthcare.
Collaborations & Funding
Collaborations
A network of the six NIHR Patient Safety Research Collaborations (NIHR PSRCs), has been established. The network’s goal is to exploit the potential for sharing knowledge, expertise and resources across the six PSRCs. This will maximise our ability to deliver highly relevant research that responds to the needs of patients and the health and care system, and enhances the impact of patient safety research in England. Find out more here.
Six PSRCs have been awarded funding, twice as many as the three funded previously (as NIHR Patient Safety Translational Research Centres), with new collaborations based in Birmingham, Central London and Newcastle in addition to existing collaborations in:
