Navigating Pressure Ulcer Litigation: An Insight into Coroner’s Court Cases

Join us at Hilton Dublin Airport for an engaging free to attend event & workshop exploring the challenges of Pressure Ulcer Litigation.

Hear from the experts and get your questions answered during the morning presentations where the following topics will be covered:

• The medical and legal aspects of coroner’s courts
• Common themes where lapsed care has resulted in litigation
• The role and perspective of clinicians attending coroner’s courts to provide evidence
• What can go wrong within a system that results in pressure ulcer litigation?
• What is a coroner’s court experience like for a clinician?

After lunch, there will be a live mock-up of a coroner’s court, to experience first-hand what it would be like to attend and give evidence. This is a great opportunity for clinicians to experience the atmosphere of a coroner’s court in a less stressful environment.

We are very excited to introduce our brilliant speakers:

• Professor David Gray, Executive Nurse Director – Nurse Consultant Tissue Viability, Pioneer Private Care
• Professor Steven Jeffrey, Medical Director – Consultant Burns and Plastic Surgeon, Pioneer Private Care
• Lorraine McLean, Tissue Viability CNS, St Vincent’s University Hospital
