NCHD Safety Leads

The number of anaesthesia departments that now have a named NCHD Safety Lead has been steadily increasing. Direct correspondence was sent from SANI Chair I. Leonard to CAI trainees in advance of last NCHD changeover to encourage them to consider taking up this role and highlighting the potential benefits and opportunities the role may offer.

Names of new NCHD Safety Leads from individual departments should be forwarded to SANI Admin at patient.safety@coa.ie so that mailing list can be updated.
