Leaflet resource
We received 1,223 claims for incidents occurring between 2012 and 2017 that have cost the NHS £233 million so far. Of these cases, 728 claims are under review due to the complexities around consent. Consent can be a common contributing factor in many claims. This leaflet looks at examples of failure to provide adequate consent, a breakdown of these kinds of claims by clinical speciality, the importance of the Montgomery ruling and what supported decision making looks like.

About the Faculty
The Faculty of Learning is a repository of educational learning products and resources. This section of our website showcases learning material developed by NHS Resolution to support the health service to learn from harm. We work in partnership with other arm’s length bodies (ALB’s), the Royal Colleges, other stakeholders and charities to promote best practice and support collaboration.
Here you can find a range of carefully curated modules that give you access to a collection of learning materials we have put together thematically.
