Today is World Patient Safety Day. This year's campaign is 'Safe care for life', and we wanted to talk about Martha's Rule, what it is and how it works.

Martha's Rule is a patient safety initiative to help detect signs of deterioration early and it applies to patients of all ages and conditions. To find out more, search 'Martha's Rule' on the NHS website: https://www.england.nhs.uk/patient-safety/marthas-rule/

Speak up about anything that worries you — it could help prevent more serious health problems. If you're still concerned, Martha's Rule gives you the right to request a rapid review.
