The new NHS Patient Safety Syllabus has brought education and training to the fore to push patient safety in healthcare. Based on the syllabus this masterclass will focus on how Human Factors and Red Teams can improve Patient Safety. Red Teams are defined as a team that is formed with the objective of subjecting an organisation’s plans, programmes, ideas and assumptions to rigorous analysis and challenge. We will look at the use of Red Teaming taken from the Ministry of Defence for supporting staff and teams faced with different problems and challenges in healthcare.

We will look at how we can use these techniques to improve problem solving and making decisions across all levels of the organisations. Red Teaming is the independent application of a range of structured, creative and critical thinking techniques to assist healthcare staff make a better-informed decision or produce a more robust product.

Finally, we will address problems and develop capability within healthcare organisations. It introduces more formal analytical techniques that can be used with more complex problems when more time is available. 

“The NHS should continually and forever reduce patient harm by embracing wholeheartedly an ethic of learning.”
