Advise, Resolve, Learn – NHS Resolution’s approach to clinical negligence claims

Please note this event has now taken place.

Kennedys' healthcare team are delighted to be hosting the penultimate session of our annual healthcare seminar programme 2024, which will be held both in-person and virtually on Tuesday 22 October.

Guest speaker: Helen Vernon, Chief Executive, NHS Resolution

Helen Vernon has been Chief Executive of NHS Resolution since 2014. She has led the transition of NHS Resolution from its predecessor bodies to an organisation which places a greater emphasis on keeping disputes out of court and on learning from what goes wrong in order to support improvements in healthcare.

Helen first joined NHS Resolution, formerly The NHS Litigation Authority (NHS LA), in 1998, becoming its Director of Claims in 2013. She has an MA in Law from Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge University and is a Chartered Insurer and Accredited Mediator. Prior to joining the NHS LA she had a career in insurance before specialising in clinical negligence indemnity.

This seminar will be chaired by Kennedys' Partner and Global Head of Healthcare Christopher Malla.
