SYSTEMATIC INCIDENT PREVENTION AND CONTROL METHOD – The FMEA for Healthcare

Introduction:

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) is a proactive tool, technique and quality method that enables the identification and prevention of process or product errors before they occur. FMEA can help identify and eliminate concerns early in the development of a process or new service delivery. FMEA is a systematic way to examine a process prospectively for possible ways in which failure can occur, and then to redesign the process so that the new model eliminates the possibility of failure.

Objective:

  • To provide a comprehensive coverage of FMEA techniques and exercises that enable the participants grasp the essential skills of this proactive safety management approach.
  • To share practical valuable experience with successful examples in Hong Kong Healthcare sectors

Who Should Attend?

Clinical professionals, physicians, nurses, allied health professionals, Quality & Safety and other supporting professionals
