Patient safety and reducing avoidable harm is a global Patient safety and reducing avoidable harm is a global challenge in healthcare. Over recent decades there has been a concerted effort through global, international and national actions to improve patient safety and to provide evidence through research to inform how these challenges can be addressed. In Scotland, the world leading Patient Safety Programme is a unique national initiative to improve the safety and reliability of health and social care and reduce harm. As part of patient safety approaches, one Scottish health board implemented a 'Collaborative' model approach to improve patient safety and reduce harm. This qualitative study was conducted with the purpose of gaining meaningful insight into the 'collaborative' to inform and shape further implementation of the safety improvement plan. Qualitative data were obtained through a range of planned interactive and focused discussions with a total of 36 staff participants. This included representation from the multidisciplinary team involved in the specialist areas of the collaborative who participated in either focused discussion groups or interviews. The high volume of qualitative data generated were transcribed and analysed by two experienced researchers using a systematic approach to thematic analysis. Three key themes (staff ownership; clarity of purpose, supporting infrastructur e) and 13 sub-themes emerged from the data which confirmed the key essential characteristics required for effectiveness of this 'collaborative' model for patient safety. This included effective leadership, allocated resources, communication and cross pollination of ideas, set timescale for outcomes, protected staff time, training and education, motivation and culture change.
