Did a 2AM emergency cardioversion in Resus this week.
I felt exhausted, rotten man flu 🤧. Nearly overlooked the O2 being off, but A&E nurse pulls out a pre-procedure prompt card which took 10 seconds. Successful, safe procedure.
Checklists are good ✅

Metric-fixation in healthcare is becoming a major problem, especially in patient safety. In this blog piece I try to unpick some of the problems we are creating for ourselves. https://t.co/AGdaqasOIB
What is Social Impact without a risk calculation? A smoke screen💨 . Join me at the Wall Street Green Summit 2023. Let’s talk Social Risk Quantification. # #socialimpact#socialrisk#riskmanagement#riskanalysis#alpha

Making a positive #socialimpact is really important to small businesses 💙
73% of businesses surveyed for the Generosity of Business report said that they plan to fundraise for charity in 2023. This is really inspiring!✨
Thanks to everyone who took part in the survey❤️
@KenZeroHarm@MarkSujan @JonathanO_QI @robcunney@theQCommunity@flightsafety Yes. It’s a great document. It’s here for anyone who needs the link https://t.co/ep4aenmqrN I am working on an approach for aviation maintenance technicians which has interesting parallels with healthcare.
Safety-II is making a positive impact in the NHS. At a recent webinar I ran with @MarkSujan & @JonathanO_QI we heard some great practice from @bianca_entqi and @robcunney as well as plenty of others. See link for more detail. https://t.co/fvSdX3iwEM

Crash intubation in A&E the other night. Urgent ++, so we observe a shortened checklist.
20 seconds later we’re ready to RSI, having identified suction not switched on.
If you think you don’t have time to do the checklist, the more you need to do it.

@acorbettn @GoodGovernInst Thanks for sharing. Agreed, a valuable summary. Amazing to see how risk is so important in governance but how little it is recognised in the recruitment of Board Members.
@AeroSociety Glad to be a part of this initiative. We have made a series of recommendations to improve maintenance safety. If you want to help implement these please get in touch.
Simon Gill, member of the Human Factors: Engineering Sub Group at the Royal Aeronautical Society shares his thoughts on their latest report following a study into the development of a strategy to enhance human centred design for maintenance. Read here: https://t.co/gZm4z0cmQQ
📢Are you applying Safety II principles to improve safety in either maternity, A&E, ICU or anaesthetics?
I'd love to interview you to explore how you are going about it!
Please see poster below or email [email protected] for info
@psquantumsafety@StevenShorrock Sounds like a great event and your analysis of the state of Safety-II/ resilience engineering is, as ever, insightful Paul. I am intrigued by the "Stretton frequency of different outcomes" chart. Have you elaborated elsewhere or is this a teaser for the new book?
Do you have an opinion on #Safety-II in #healthcare? Please register for Safety-II: A critical look at its promise and potential for health care. Looking forward to facilitating with @MarkSujan and @JonathanO_QI @theQCommunity https://t.co/awzuGlznyV
Interested in workplace #safety? I need your help!
I have a short survey on your thoughts re risk management and #SafetyII etc.
As many different roles and places the better.
Thanks!
