Communicate the purpose of non-punitive safety reporting to those who have to comply with it.
Building a Culture of Safety and Non-Punitive Reporting
A practical programme in non-punitive safety reporting for professionals who are accountable for results, not just awareness.
Course Overview
Cost pressure and quality expectations on non-punitive safety reporting are rising at the same time. The data supporting the health and pharmaceutical services capability is usually present but rarely assembled into a decision. It is written for people who have to make this part of health and pharmaceutical services work with the resources they already have. They acquire practical criteria for judging when non-punitive safety reporting is working and when it is only appearing to. Comparative studies of the wider health and pharmaceutical services agenda across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. Buying a tool rarely fixes the health and pharmaceutical services capability; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. Work is grounded in real cases drawn from non-punitive safety reporting, which each participant adapts to conditions in their own organisation. It treats this area of health and pharmaceutical services as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Participants leave with a first-ninety-days plan for this strand of health and pharmaceutical services rather than a set of notes.
