Iodem provide a number of systems based investigative services - which support our clients to respond to patient safety incidents within complex systems of care.
We focus upon the opportunities for learning and prevention, by identifying system strengths as well as weaknesses. Using a variety of investigative tools, we get to the heart of how systems really work in order to make recommendations that support and drive sustainable change.
We pride ourselves upon the quality of our investigations, which demonstrate a secure and transparent audit trail built upon processes which reflect best practice in line with NHS guidance.
Our approach is flexible. We can conduct all aspects of an investigation - freeing up valuable management time. Alternatively, we can work in collaboration with our clients, providing support to develop inhouse capabilities.
