This course has been developed to support healthcare professionals operating in low and middle-income countries in managing healthcare incidents.
Despite the dedication and skills of healthcare professionals, incidents in the healthcare field remain unfortunately a reality. When things go wrong, it is important not to blame the individuals involved but to look deeper into the root causes of the incident and learn from a process/system perspective.
Participants will gain a solid understanding of the key concepts, strategies, and tools necessary to reduce and prevent risks, mistakes, and harm to patients during healthcare delivery in humanitarian settings.
