Presentation
89. Development of a Systems Safety Program for a Large Healthcare System
SessionPoster Session 1
DescriptionWe describe a new program element in our healthcare system to pursue opportunities for complementary safety efforts that emphasize understanding how things go right and supporting activities or structures that contribute to system success. Specific program focus areas are (1) supporting human-centered design, (2) encouraging considerations of resilience when evaluating and designing systems, and (3) promoting the thoughtful encoding of standards as guidance, not context-insensitive enforcement, into healthcare systems. The program takes a holistic systems approach to safety by promoting system lifecycle activities that explore context of use and work-as-done, recognizing that the way work is performed reflects realities of the work environment, demands, resources, and organizational value system. It seeks to increase human factors capability with a goal of empowering design teams routinely to understand and document current state prior to proposing changes and to conduct risk assessments for current state, proposed redesigned state, and post-implementation state.
