Learning from others: A low ‐cost–high‐impact risk/opportunity identification technique
AbstractNews for risk/opportunity identification (NfROI) is a tool for practitioners to leverage the journey from a risk management mindset to an enterprise risk management approach. NfROI unleashes the power of storytelling and provides a standardized format to enhance the existing practice of gleaning information from sources such asJHRM, news outlets, social media, and the ASHRM Exchange.

The impact of clinical crisis management on trauma team outcomes following a prolonged strike by nursing, technical, and support staff
AbstractThere is a paucity of literature describing the preparation of hospital institutions prior to a nursing strike and the quality outcomes during and after a prolonged nursing strike. No published study was found describing the effects of a prolonged strike on quality outcomes specific to trauma patients. The American College of Surgeons (ACS) suggests specific critiques and complications data that each trauma program may choose to track as quality indicators, and those metrics are submitted to regional, state and national databanks and closely examined during site accreditations. This research study analyzed data fro...

A structured approach to analyse logistics risks in the blood transfusion process
AbstractBlood transfusion is a critical health care process due to the nature of the products handled and the complexity driven by the strong interdependence among the sub ‐processes involved. Most of the errors causing adverse events originate during the blood logistics activities. Several literature contributions apply risk management to the transfusion process but often in a fragmented and reactive way. Moreover, few of them focus on logistics risks and assess th e effectiveness of risk responses through operational key performance indicators (KPIs). The present paper applies a comprehensive and structured approach to...
