Root Cause Analysis of Medical Incidents
An applied course in root cause analysis of medical incidents built around the decisions practitioners actually face.
Course Overview
Variation in root cause analysis of medical incidents between shifts and sites is where avoidable harm lives. Accreditation bodies assess medical incidents on documented evidence of consistent practice. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the health and pharmaceutical services capability that were visible long before the incident. The programme suits teams tackling root cause analysis of medical incidents together as readily as individuals attending alone. They acquire practical criteria for judging when the practice within health and pharmaceutical services is working and when it is only appearing to. The programme takes participants through medical incidents end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Every module pairs a short input on root cause analysis of medical incidents with structured practice on the participant's own material. The difficulty is not agreeing that medical incidents matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Participants finish with a short, specific brief on this area of health and pharmaceutical services ready to put in front of a decision maker.
