Course Overview

Safety performance on healthcare facility safety degrades quietly during periods when nothing goes wrong. Regulators judge this strand of occupational health and safety on evidence of application, not on the existence of a document. What blocks progress on this area of occupational health and safety is usually unclear ownership rather than unclear intent. The programme suits teams tackling healthcare facility safety together as readily as individuals attending alone. They leave able to brief senior management on the practice within occupational health and safety in terms that support a decision. The course covers this strand of occupational health and safety at the level of detail needed to act, and stops there. Mature organisations treat healthcare facility safety as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a safety procedure for this aspect of occupational health and safety as they go. The programme closes with an action plan for the occupational health and safety capability that each participant writes for their own organisation.
