The HSE is the ‘owner’ of the NIMS healthcare data with respect of patient safety/service user incidents. The SCA is the joint controller of incident data and ‘owner’ of data with respect to patient safety related claims. The HSE in conjunction with the SCA jointly manage NIMS. Note: other incident and claim types are also captured, managed, and analysed on NIMS. There is also an aligned but separate governance with Tusla for service user’s incidents.
