       Improved patient safety, such as reducing the risk of adverse
       events, is anticipated. Within a month of completing the
       secondments, staff on one ward simultaneously cared for two
       patients whose symptom management required current knowledge and
       competence in using subcutaneous syringe drivers to deliver
       drugs for end of life care .The staff involved had been assessed
       as competent in caring for a patient with a syringe driver since
       completing their secondment, ensuring patient safety.
