So many health care organizations work “around the edges” with individual safety programs and projects, but do not develop a thorough and comprehensive program that transforms the organization through engaging leadership and creating multiple “centers of gravity.” UK organizations participating in The Health Foundation’s Safer Patients Initiative are doing just that. Learn about the people, framework, and systems thatare transforming and cutting adverse events in half in these organizations.
After this presentation you will be able to:
- Apply the strategic approach and design of the Safer Patients Initiative in your organization.
- Describe three key organization-wide strategies to dramatically improve safety in your organization.
