Manage episode 405408302 series 3384380
This Healthcare Quality Week, I had the honor of sitting down with esteemed High Reliability Organizing (HRO) expert Craig Clapper to discuss my toughest questions about patient safety and quality improvement. He has a background in nuclear engineering and an emphasis in good humor, resulting in a conversation that was both compassionate and thought-provoking. This feature-length episode covers the human side of high reliability, the number of rodent hairs acceptable in a jar of peanut butter, and a practical approach to barriers in data collection and process adoption.
Key Points:
-Compassionate outcomes and HIPAA
-The future of patient safety
-Configuration control and change management
