Root Cause Analysis: 2 Day Intensive Training Course is organized by Healthcare (HC) - UK Conferences and will be held during Apr 25 - 26, 2018 at De Vere West One, London, England, United Kingdom. It is clear from the evidence reviewed during the course of this inquiry that the investigative processes in the health service in England remain obscure and difficult to navigate for patients and families. As a result, patients and families are excluded by the system, which must become open and learning-focused if investigations are to lead to positive changes in the system. Families and patients should, as a matter of course, be included in investigations and should feel confident that lessons will be learned as a result of clinical incidents. The first day will focus on information collection, data organisation and analysis. The second day of this interactive training will provide guidance on how to support staff and interview techniques. There will then be a root cause analysis case study. One of the most common complaints made about incident reports in the NHS is the lack of consistency. The aim of this course is to ensure a consistent approach to investigations that is supportive and solution orientated. Conference Objectives are : • A Practical guide to RCA including: • Information collection and organisation • Interview techniques • How to write a tabular timeline • How to analyse care and service delivery problems, and contributory factors • Making effective recommendations • Provision of a model report and checklists Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
