The document introduces the topics of improving patient safety through a just culture approach, comprehensive unit-based safety programs, and safe patient handling and mobility. It discusses how medical errors can be reduced by understanding human fallibility and designing safer systems, and presents principles of safe design that can be applied to both technical processes and teamwork. Examples of assistive devices and national standards for safe patient handling and mobility are also reviewed.

Wearables from Lab to Bedside: The Stanford Wearable Health Lab Story by Matthew Smuck, MD, Chief, Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Associate Professor, Orthopaedics, Director, Wearable Health Lab, Stanford University. Presented at the IoT, Big Data Healthcare Summit Western Canada on February 1, 2017.
Introducing Comprehensive, Concurrent Patient Safety Surveillance for Hospita...Health Catalyst
Health Catalyst is excited to announce the Patient Safety Monitor™ Suite: Surveillance Module, the industry’s first comprehensive patient safety application to use predictive and text analytics combined with concurrent clinician review of data to help monitor, detect, predict and prevent threats to patients before harm can occur.
The Patient Safety Monitor Suite leverages AI and machine learning to quickly identify patterns of harm, learn from those patterns, and suggest strategies to eliminate patient safety risks and hazards. This potent combination of AI, machine learning, text analytics and near real-time data from multiple IT systems enables the Patient Safety Monitor Suite to predict harm events and guide clinical interventions while the patient is still in the hospital.
In this webinar you will learn how the Surveillance Module can provide:
* Greater clarity to the types, numbers, and causes of adverse events, enabling leaders to quickly prioritize improvement efforts.
* Improved patient outcomes such as reduced morbidity, mortality, and length-of-stay, and increased quality-of-life and satisfaction.
* Bottom-line cost savings and improved brand recognition related to unnecessary or preventable high-cost care and reduced/eliminated penalties.
* The ability for clinicians and infection preventionists to focus on patient care instead of burdensome manual data extraction, aggregation, and reporting.

As humans we are prone to making mistakes and getting things wrong, which is part of our everyday nature. However, in healthcare human errors can often lead to incidents, which can be sources of inconvenience or sometimes major consequences that can directly affect our patients.
Human factors theory plays an important role in understanding how human behavior contributes to such errors, through our interaction with colleagues, equipment, systems, and the working environment. The theory forms an integral part of aviation safety and has also found its feet in other industries, including healthcare.
This presentation was presented at the Saudi Health 2014 International Nursing Conference and introduced the basic concepts of human factors theory in nursing. Case studies were used as examples to draw on the factors that contribute to issues of care, which directly affect patients. Interventions of how to address common human factors to minimize risks were also discussed.

Medical errors can be a nightmare – both for patients, and for doctors. However, this is one of those topics which we prefer to sweep under the carpet, because it can be so emotionally charged.
This book provides a holistic overview of medical errors from multiple perspectives. Doctors, nurses, pharmacists, other healthcare providers, pharmaceutical companies, insurers and patients themselves all need to work together to promote patient safety.
Starting with the basics as to why medical errors are still so common, this book highlights what needs to be done to keep patients safe. Reading this book may help to save your life, or that of a loved one. If you are a patient, please read it before you go to the doctor . If you are a doctor, please read it before you see your next patient !

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

Josie King – 18 months old
• Admitted to JHH January 2001 after suffering
60% BSA (2nd
degree, or partial thickness burns)
• Josie stayed in JHH PICU from admission to just
before Valentines day when she was moved to
IMCU.
• Pt developed vomiting, and diarrhea, confirmed
CLABSI. Placed on oral Antibiotics (no IV access)
and eventually became dehydrated, lethargic
and unresponsive. Treated with Narcan, and
Josie was allowed to drink (1 liter of fluid).
Methadone was d/c’d.
• Per mom, Josie continued to look bad, and a
pain specialist thought she should return to
PICU but attending surgeon said no. Pain
specialist recommended ½ original dose of
methadone to prevent withdrawal. 1 dose of
oral Methadone given. Pt went into cardiac
arrest, resuscitated for long period. Was brain
dead and removed from life support on 2/22.
5. How can such an event happen?
• People are fallible
• Medicine is still treated as an art, not science
• Need to view the delivery of healthcare as a
science
• Need systems that catch mistakes before they
reach the patient

7. Case study
Central line removal
•A woman with metastatic cancer was hospitalized in the
intensive care unit (ICU) for management of congestive heart
failure and acute-on-chronic renal failure. The nephrology service
initiated continuous venovenous hemodialysis through a
large-bore catheter inserted in the right internal jugular vein.
Two weeks later, a first-year renal fellow removed the catheter
while the patient was seated upright in a chair. The patient
became acutely hypoxemic and appeared to seize. Head imaging
revealed global central nervous system ischemia suspicious
for hypoperfusion. The patient survived but had neurological deficits
and died about 6 months later.

• Don’t play man down
– Speak up when you have a concern
– Listen when others do

Editor's Notes
2/18 Josie started was febrile and began vomiting. 2/19- confirmed CLABSI. Started on oral antibiotics Josie continued to vomit and have diarrhea (attributed to Ab) Josie’s mom appealed to RNs and MDs to give her fluid (po or IV) but requests were denied Josie’s mom gave her a bath in the evening, Josie was thinner and she was sucking on a washcloth for fluid. Upon return to bed, Josie’s eyes rolled back in her head. An attempt by mom and RNs to get MDs to look at Josie failed.
