Incident Analysis and Proactive Risk Assessment
A Live Facilitated Virtual Workshop for Health Care Practitioners and Patient/Family Advisors
Thursday, November 25 and Friday, November 26, 2021
Registration is full
This virtual workshop will provide health care practitioners with background theory and hands-on practice in incident analysis (root cause analysis, RCA) and proactive risk assessment using failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA).
Day 1:
Incident Analysis - Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
The workshop curriculum is derived from the Canadian Incident Analysis Framework.
Program Abstract:
The program begins with an overview of the system approach in the management of error and introduction to human factors engineering principles. RCA is a tool to help investigate patient safety incidents in health care, identify and analyze root causes and contributing factors, and develop recommendations. Participants will learn how to conduct an RCA through interactive exercises and group work. The workshop will cover diagramming to support incident analysis, identification of contributing factors, summarizing findings, and developing and implementing recommended actions.
Day 2:
Proactive Risk Assessment Using Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
The workshop curriculum is derived from the Canadian Failure Mode and Effects Analysis Framework Version II (2016).
Program Abstract:
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) is a technique used to identify process and product problems before they occur. This workshop builds on the principles learned in Day 1, with a change in focus to proactive risk assessment and process redesign. Through interactive group work, participants will learn how to diagram a process, how to identify potential failures, and how to redesign processes with consideration of human factors principles to decrease the likelihood of a failure impacting a patient. FMEA is a team-based, structured process. It is forward-looking, in contrast to the retrospective approach of incident analysis and techniques such as root cause analysis. FMEA is based on the premise that all systems and processes contain embedded system failures.

Incident Analysis and Proactive Risk Assessment Workshop Background
Thursday, November 25 and Friday, November 26, 2021
Registration is full
This workshop provides health care practitioners with background theory and hands-on practice in incident analysis (root cause analysis, RCA) and proactive risk assessment using failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA)
Day 1:
Incident Analysis - Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
Learning Objectives for RCA:
In the RCA portion of the workshop, participants will learn:
- How systems theory and human factors principles impact error potential and solution development;
- Why it is important to consider the full incident management continuum;
- How to complete a system-based analysis; and
- How to redesign systems for safety.
Day 2:
Proactive Risk Assessment Using Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
Learning Objectives for FMEA:
On completion of the FMEA portion of the workshop, participants will be able to:
- Identify processes suitable for analysis using FMEA;
- Describe the steps required to complete an FMEA;
- Map out a process and identify potential failure modes;
- Develop redesign strategies based on systems theory and basic human factors principles; and
- Apply principles learned to support medication safety activities in their practice setting.
