Consultation | Disclosure of harm following an adverse event

Our draft statement on Disclosure of harm following an adverse event is intended to help doctors understand the purpose of open disclosure, why it matters to patients and/or their family/whānau, and to guide doctors in situations that require harm to be disclosed. 

While the draft statement is similar to the current statement, our changes are intended to make it clearer and easier to navigate.

 We invite your feedback on our draft.   Please respond to the questions in the consultation paper using the online form at our website [ here ].
