A pen picture of Qatar
The extraordinary population boom is set to continue
Population
In ten years population grown from 740,000 to 1,900,000
Much of the growth is in the expatriate workforce from South and South East Asia, MENA, Europe and North America
75% of the population is male due to the imported workforce
The population is also overwhelming of working age
Nearly half of the population live in the capital city Doha
With the growth in the economy and large infrastructure projects, the population will continue to increase rapidly (2.4m by 2030)

Health challenges
The diversity of the population means that we suffer from a double burden of disease – communicable diseases associated with the developing world and those associated with modern lifestyles in developed countries
Some of the greatest burden of disease in the population is from chronic diseases, including metabolic diseases, obesity, cardiovascular and hypertension, and respiratory diseases such as asthma.
There is a particularly high incidence of diabetes at 16-17% of the adult population
The incidence of cancer is not high but is expected to grow as the comparatively young population ages and grows, and that is being addressed through a new and comprehensive national cancer strategy
Similarly, there is a new mental health strategy which will seek to build primary and community services rather than relying too heavily on inpatient models of care
Qatar also faces the challenge of high rates of trauma injuries, with road traffic accidents and work related injuries accounting for a large proportion of cases
Our overall challenge is to transition from a health system that treats acute patients, to being one that predicts and prevents ill health, particularly for chronic and lifestyle diseases, with high quality acute and tertiary care for those patients that need it.

Growth in population significantly outpaces growth in our bed numbers
Note: Bed numbers and population indexed to a value of 1 in 1957;Health expenditure (derived from World Bank data) indexed to be equal to bed numbers in 1995

A Fast Developing System under Pressure

Evidence from Patient Safety Research
1. “At least 44,000 people, and perhaps as many as 98,000 people, die in hospitals each year as a result of medical errors that could have been prevented.”
- US Institute of Medicine, November 1999
2. “Unsafe patient care is common and associated with significant morbidity and mortality throughout the world… much of the harm is likely amenable to intervention. Studies from the US suggest that approximately 3% to 4% of hospitalized patients suffer a serious adverse event. Studies from other developed nations found that between 8% and 16% of hospitalized patients suffered an adverse event. Between 30% and 50% of such adverse events are preventable.”
- A.K. Jha et al, Quality and Safety in Healthcare, 2010

Types of Errors
The Quality of Health Care in America Committee of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) concluded that it is not acceptable for patients to be harmed by the health care system that is supposed to offer healing and comfort--a system that promises, “First, do no harm.”

A Risk is………..
……..the chance of anything happening that would have a
negative impact upon our ability to deliver our strategic objectives and
our vision for health care
17
Good risk management is important because it…..
Ensures the organization is aware of its strategic risks i.e. those which have the greatest impact on its ability to deliver its strategic objectives
Ensures the organization has a plan for managing those risks
Minimises the impact of the risks to a level which is acceptable i.e. risk appetite
Provides individuals and departments with a framework for reporting risks
Underpins essential culture change in the organisation
18
Error reduction Overview: Hierarchy of Controls
Policies, Training, Inspection
Minimize consequences of errors
Make errors visible
Make it easy to do the right thing
Make it hard to do the wrong thing

Types of Culture
BLAME •Seeks to address mistakes and apportions blame•WHO IS TO BLAME
BUREAUCRATIC •Over reliance on rules, regulations and policies at the jeopardy of individual personal judgment•WHAT POLICY WAS NOT FOLLOWED
MISTRUST •Over competitive and seeks to embarrass departments and individuals•IT WASN’T ME, IT WAS THEM
REACTIVE •Short term, dealing with the immediate problem•THAT’S THAT ISSUE RESOLVED
PROACTIVE •Encouraging, learning and forward thinking•WHAT CAN WE LEARN, LET’S LOOK AT WHAT COULD HAPPEN
20
The Required Culture Change
1. From : It couldn’t happen here!
To: It is happening here, it is likely to happen again, we need to re-design care delivery so that harm does not reach the patient.
2. From: Who made the error?
To: What happened, why and what can we do to preventing it happening again.
