Summary
Annie's story is an example of how healthcare organisations seeking high reliability embrace a just culture in all they do. This includes a system's approach to analysing near misses and harm events – looking to analyse events without a blame and shame approach.

This 5 minute video, from MedStar Health, focuses on the human cost to our healthcare workforce when we fail to cultivate a just culture and systems approach overall, but especially when managing unfortunate harm events. This story has inspired conversation and can be used widely as a teaching tool.
When patient harm occurs, caregivers involved are often devastated along with the patient and family, yet many have had to navigate this storm alone. A systems approach in our healthcare workplace, along with the just culture, cultivates the sharing of knowledge and helps prevent patient harm from occurring altogether.
