The ACHS Improvement Academy is pleased to provide an interactive training session on Implementing Recommendations from Incident Investigations and Root Cause Analysis (RCA) using PDSA cycles. This webinar strongly links to the NSQHS second edition Standard 1.11 Clinical Incident Management, where there is requirement to ensure that the organisation uses information from the analysis of incidents to improve safety and quality.

“The same amount of effort that goes into incident investigation must go into the implementation of recommendations if repeat harm to patients is to be avoided”. Adj Assoc Professor Bernie Harrison
