The Patient Safety Lead Training Program (PSL) has been designed for senior staff within healthcare organisations who lead patient safety activities including: root cause analysis, design of recommendations that lead to improvements in patient safety, open disclosure, and legal and governance responsibilities for patient safety. This 12 month program provides practical skills and theories that can be translated back into the workplace. Participants will have an immersion in the patient safety literature and contemporary approaches to organising for patient safety. This course will focus on the proactive design elements to reduce risk of harm from health care including: human factors engineering and reliable design principles and will draw on concepts from other industries which are recognised as having high reliability e.g. mining, nuclear power and aviation. It will also provide insights and understanding from studies of patient safety and successful healthcare examples in building safe and reliable care.
