It addresses the inevitable problem of human fallibility and explains fundamental sensory, cognitive and motor limitations of humans that predispose them to error. This course examines vulnerabilities in complex work systems, offers practical strategies to prevent or reduce human errors, and outlines methods to systematically analyze adverse events and identify solutions to ensure safe, effective and efficient patient care. Knowledge and skills acquired in this course will be essential to anticipate, recognize and effectively control patient safety risks in dynamic situations. The course provides a number of relevant case studies, best practices and pragmatic techniques to foster a culture of safety, create high reliability organizations and design systems and work processes that are resilient to human errors.
