HSIB webinar: The impact of staff fatigue on patient safety: how do we manage the risk

 until 

Event details

The Healthcare Safety Investigation Branch (HSIB) is facilitating a free half-day event to ask the question on how can healthcare understand and start to manage the risk of staff fatigue.

This event is intended to bring together clinical, NHS patient safety representatives and professionals from other safety critical industries. The collaboration of these professionals is intended to share insights around the risk of fatigue, how to consider fatigue in the context of investigations and provide some pragmatic resources and plans for the NHS to introduce the concept and tools for fatigue management.

Format

The morning of this event is set up for online attendance and along with the team from HSIB, there will representatives from a range of key national healthcare organisations attending the event in person. Speakers will include healthcare professionals, academics, human factors professionals from other industries and healthcare. There will be several short presentations to provide the context and background to the work and activities in the area of fatigue and the risk in healthcare. Speakers will signpost participants to existing resources and information relevant to healthcare organisations.
