How is the Welsh Government working with health boards to encourage the consistent and regular practice of Jess's Rule by GPs, as is being done in England?
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care | Answered on 15/10/2025
We use patient safety and diagnostic safeguards which have a similar intent to Jess’s Rule, which are embedded through the Duty of Quality and Duty of Candour. These promote early recognition of risk, continuity, and review of unresolved presentations.
