OUR SOLUTIONS * Incident Reporting * Patient Experience * Employee Health & Safety * Track & Trend * AHRQ Surveys * Infection Prevention * Process Improvement Tools * Real Time Analytics * Accreditation Readiness * Quality Chart Review * Claims Management * Integration HIGH RELIABILITY ORGANIZATIONS (HRO) High-reliability organizations (HRO) in healthcare are defined as those that operate in complex, high-hazard situations for extended periods while managing to avoid serious failures. Hospitals can make substantial progress toward high reliability by undertaking several specific organizational change initiatives. Further research and practical experience will be necessary to determine the validity and effectiveness of this framework for high-reliability healthcare. SENSITIVITY TO OPERATIONS Tap for more Operations happen in real time and include discrete components of the system they compose. As such, operations generate outcomes that we can observe. The HRO continuously evaluates outcomes to determine if they are in fact serving the objectives of the organization. They do not assume that the continuous outcomes will be the same as planned, assumed, or hoped for. Operations are what an organization does. In this sense, HROs treat them as hands-on experiences from which lessons about the organization can be taken to further improve function in real time. PREOCCUPATION WITH FAILURE Tap for more Systems in modern organizations are complicated, and they experience failures. HROs focus like a laser on failure; they give continuous attention to anomalies that could be symptoms of larger problems. The basic insight here is that big problems don’t emerge fully formed in an instant. They are almost always preceded by smaller problems or evidence that would point to the big problem if it were given proper attention. HROs do NOT assume that if a control in place succeeds in containing a failure, everything is right. COMMITMENT TO RESILIENCE Tap for more The signature of the high reliability organization is not that it is error-free, but that errors don’t disable it. HROs are essentially adaptable, learning organizations. They can experience a failure but continue operating under degraded conditions while marshalling resources to restore capacity. To operate like this, HROs can recognize emerging anomalies despite prior beliefs, experiences, or plans. In large part, this requires both open-minded observation and a willingness to react appropriately even under unanticipated conditions. RELUCTANCE TO SIMPLIFY Tap for more Complexity means that organizations have numerous potential sources of failure, and HROs do not apply generalized terms to describe them. It is a common and convenient response to a problem to name a general kind of cause and consider it a solution. In HROs, the occurrence of a failure is taken as an opportunity to dig deeply into the details of the system involved to find a real cause-you differentiate the details within those broad, convenient generalizations, engaging innovative solutions within a dynamic environment. DEFERENCE TO EXPERTISE Tap for more The fact that an HRO must be open-minded rather than judgmental leads to the idea that the culture of the HRO defers to expertise. The key point, however, is that the “expert” involved is the person with hands-on knowledge of the operation at the point of failure, not the “expertise” conferred by hierarchical authority. In the HRO, the expert has access to upward reporting, and there is no intimidation from authority to impede the communication. The openness required for success depends on accurate information from every source. ACHIEVING ZERO PATIENT HARM SafeQual connects processes, data and people, working to make healthcare safer, in purposeful workflows that share corrective action progress being made as a result of their reporting efforts. The costs of not addressing patient safety issues include penalties, diagnosis related group payment decreases, excess patient care costs, legal liability exposure, and excess bed days. In the position of needing to cut costs, it can be difficult to justify spending money on new software. However, software actually saves money by reducing administrative burden, increasing operational efficiency, and preventing unwanted events. COST EFFECTIVE TAP FOR MORE Getting hospital staff and departments working together toward improving patient safety should be minimally disruptive and place minimal burden on hospital workers, in terms of training time and daily operation. The most effective incident reporting software encourages organizational participation with automation that elevates effective, transparent event reporting, collaboration and supports an organization’s safety culture goals. USER FRIENDLY TAP FOR MORE It is vital that any patient safety software provide robust reporting on key metrics and goals with built-in workflow for business rules review, escalation and customizable, purpose-built forms that follow industry best practices enabling risk leaders to effectively leverage risk management solutions. Continual monitoring for effectiveness and analysis of real-time, actionable management data is of paramount importance. DATA AND SYSTEM ANALYSIS TAP FOR MORE Patient safety is best accomplished as a team practice, with all members being held 100 percent responsible for best practices. To increase patient safety, healthcare facilities need to reinforce a patient safety culture that is fully and unmitigatedly committed to the goal of zero-error safety practices. Without a constant, usable stream of pertinent information and real time notifications about hand hygiene compliance, this is a near-impossible task to undertake. COMMITMENT TO SAFE CULTURE TAP FOR MORE While hand hygiene and other infection prevention measures are major factors in preventable morbidity, other patient safety factors include nurse-to-patient ratios, physician and nurse fatigue and burnout, antibiotic resistance, and problems related to poor interoperability of electronic health records. Ongoing, regular data is needed to identify which patient safety factors are the “problem areas” in a specific hospital or medical setting. COMPREHENSIVE DATA TAP FOR MORE LOWEST NUMBER OF ANNUAL GOOD CATCH EVENTS AND HARM EVENTS PER BED 0 MOST NUMBER OF ANNUAL GOOD CATCH EVENTS AND HARM EVENTS PER BED 0 Largest reported annual increase in corrective actions 0 % LARGEST REDUCTION IN BOARD LEVEL PATIENT COMPLAINTS IN ONE YEAR 0 % LARGEST REPORTED REDUCTION IN MEDICAL MALPRACTICE PREMIUMS IN THREE YEARS $ 0 K LARGEST REPORTED ONE YEAR INCREASE IN CMS PAYMENT FOR QUALITY ACHIEVED $ 0 K SafeQual A cloud-based software for safety, quality, and risk provides leaders the ability to effectively pursue zero patient and employee harm across their entire care delivery system.

CONTACT US SALES@SAFEQUAL.NET Linkedin SEO BY WEBLIFY & WEBTEC ACCREDITATION READINESS This component allows for the documentation of findings found in internal and external (DOH/DNV/TJC) accreditation, routing of non-compliance items to task owners, tracking of corrective actions, and compliance monitoring. Similarly, clinical and non-clinical EOC rounds and internal CMS CoP audits are documented, and non-compliance is tracked in this component. The system automatically sends emails to task owners of non-compliance and sends reminders and escalations of open tasks based on configurable rules. PROCESS IMPROVEMENT TOOLS RCA2 Management This component is used to manage the root cause analysis (RCA) and opportunity for improvement (OFI) tasks identified for an event. Reminders and escalations to RCA and OFI task owners and managers can be sent automatically or triggered manually. Also, the RCA lead can reject a task marked complete if it is not satisfactory. Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) This component guides the team in the analysis of potential failure points when developing a new process and at the same time documents the actions to take for the failure points. The tool’s workflow enforces completeness in the documentation of the analysis. Initiatives (PDSA) This component is used by process improvement teams to document what the PI project is about, how the test will be conducted, how the results will be collected and what the decision (adopt, adapt, abandon) is at end of the project. The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) framework is utilized here. EMPLOYEE HEALTH & SAFETY This component includes tools for Employee Health to track employees/volunteers/residents/ and contractors’ compliance in vaccination and annual evaluations such as tuberculosis screening, medical surveillance, respirator fit testing. Staff incidents and time-off work due to injuries can also be tracked here. Reporting includes the auto-generation of OSHA log. Workers Compensation and Employee Portal capabilities, round out a comprehensive solution for reducing the labor required of employee health departments by 50 to 85%. SURVEYS This component contains 5 of the Surveys on Patient Safety Culture (SOPS®) from AHRQ: hospital, medical office, community pharmacy, ambulatory surgery, and nursing home. It is easy to administer and comes with real-time reporting, including composite reports that can be used to compare your organization to others. PROCESS AUDITS This component contains forms for process audits. Workflow routes non-compliance to department leaders who are notified of new tasks, reminders and escalations via email. PEER/CHART REVIEW This component streamlines the OPPE, FPPE, and APP review processes with workflows and automated tasks. The quality team can initiate a review or rules can be set up to automatically trigger a review from an adverse event that is reported. Task owners are guided with specific prompts to address; this ensures all the required information is provided. Relevant documents can be uploaded for easy access at any time. Letters can be generated from saved templates. CLAIMS MANAGEMENT This component is used to track potentially compensable events, malpractice, and professional liability claims, and summons. It allows for documentation of physicians, experts, defendants, depositions, claim committee discussions, expenses, etc. to be managed in one easy-to-retrieve repository. INFECTION PREVENTION This component contains forms for infection prevention audits and for infection tracking. Also included is a form for construction infection control risk assessment, with workflow to streamline the approval process. Reports with audit results are available in real-time to department leaders. PATIENT EXPERIENCE This component contains forms to capture patient complaints/grievances and staff compliments, as well as workflows to route the events to owner(s) who are responsible for investigation, corrective action(s) and closure. The workflow for patient complaint is different from patient grievances; the latter includes the auto-generation of acknowledgement and closure letters that are formatted to be printed.
