Services adopted a list of 10 hospital acquired
conditions from the original list, officially

Review’ proposed the introduction of a similar
initiative for the NHS in England.

How to tackle a never event…
How to tackle a never event…
The Leapfrog Group is a nonprofit quality-improvement
organization whose members work to improve regulations
surrounding the quality and safety of American healthcare.
According to the Leapfrog Group, hospitals commit to follow
4 steps:
1) Apologize to the patient
2) Report the event
3) Perform a root cause analysis
4) Waive costs directly related to the event.
How to prevent…
• Every Never event - existing
guidelines for their prevention.
• Safety culture with strong clinical
leadership.
• Adoption of design and
technological solutions.
• Meticulous and conscientious use
of checklists .
“ W.H.O.” Surgical Safety
Thank
you….!!
“…there are some
patients we cannot
help, there are none
we cannot harm...”
