SEIPS: Everything you need to know to get you started
Content ArticleThis quick reference guide introduces the SEIPS (Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety) model, a practical framework for understanding how work systems influence patient safety outcomes. Designed for anyone new to systems thinking in healthcare, it covers the core components of the model: the work system elements (tools and technology, tasks, people, organisation and environment) and how these interact to shape processes and outcomes. Concise and accessible, it gives practitioners, safety lead, and improvement teams a clear starting point for applying SEIPS in their own context, whether reviewing an incident, mapping a care process, or designing safer systems.
