The charity working to make healthcare safer
Latest News on what the CHFG is doing to support healthcare staff and patients during the Covid emergency
The charity works with clinicians and experts to promote the use of Human Factors Science to make healthcare safer for patients and staff, to optimise well-being and improve system performance.
Embedding Human Factors science into procurement, design and delivery of care.
Encouraging a just culture, better local investigations, so mistakes are not repeated and success is.
Through education and training in all healthcare settings
The Clinical Human Factors Group, a charity, was set up by Martin Bromiley after his late wife died needlessly following a routine operation. Ten years on, the charity has influenced a generation of workers by promoting the application of Human Factors science in all areas of healthcare. However, the NHS continues to have 230 preventable deaths per week so there’s more to do.

Our ambassadors work to promote the charity and to raise both funds and awareness
We work across organisations, departments and disciplines and our independence allows us to raise the awkward questions and challenge mainstream assumptions.
“Think of the charity as a campaign and activist group with the power of respected world class experts who are trusted for their independent, considered and thoughtful support and guidance. We have the ability to push where others can’t and it is vital that as we grow and develop we retain these vital capabilities.”
Martin Bromiley OBE
