Hosted by RCEM’s Safer Care Committee, this event dives deep into the fascinating world of human factors within our complex healthcare system.

Discover how culture, communication, tasks, workspace, and equipment intertwine to shape the safety and efficiency of our Emergency Departments. Together, we’ll explore innovative strategies to create a safer environment for both patients and staff.

Learning objectives:

• Learn about the human factors that influence safety in our EDs
• Learn about the impact of using the Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF)
• Hear an example of how Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) can be used
• Explore how our biases affect the care we deliver
