• Be open and candid when things go wrong; apologise and explain; document meticulously.

• Share the minimum necessary information via secure, approved channels.

• Use professional interpreters; don’t use children/family to interpret (except true emergencies, then document and follow up).

• Use SBAR; name owners & deadlines; document contemporaneously.

• Protect patients and yourself: don’t practise if impaired; arrange safe cover.
