‘A safety culture is where staff within an organisation have a constant and active awareness of the potential for things to go wrong. Both the staff and the organisation are able to acknowledge mistakes, learn from them, and take action to put things right.’
http://www.nrls.npsa.nhs.uk/resources/patient-safety-topics/human-factors-patient-safety-culture/
‘The safety culture of an organisation is the product of individual and group values, attitudes, perceptions, competencies, and patterns of behaviour that determine the commitment to, and the style and proficiency of, an organisation’s health and safety management. Organisations with a positive safety culture are characterised by communications founded on mutual trust, by shared perceptions of the importance of safety, and by confidence in the efficacy of preventive measures.’

Has patient care been safe in the past? Ways to monitor harm include:• mortality statistics (including HSMR and SHMI)• record review (including case note review and the
Global Trigger Tool)• staff reporting (including incident report and ‘never
events’)• routine databases.
Are our clinical systems and processes reliable? Ways to monitor reliability include:• percentage of all inpatient
admissions screened for MRSA • percentage compliance with all
elements of the pressure ulcer care bundle.
Is care safe today? Ways to monitor sensitivity to operations include:• safety walk-rounds • using designated patient safety officers• meetings, handovers and ward rounds • day-to-day conversations• staffing levels• patient interviews to identify threats to
safety.
Will care be safe in the future? Possible approaches for achieving anticipation and preparedness include:• risk registers• safety culture analysis and safety
climate analysis• safety training rates• sickness absence rates• frequency of sharps injuries per month• human reliability analysis (e.g. FMEA)• safety cases.
Are we responding and improving? Sources of information to learn from include: • automated information
management systems highlighting key data at a clinical unit level (e.g. medication errors and hand hygiene compliance rates)
• at a board level, using dashboards and reports with indicators, set alongside financial and access targets.

Attributes of high reliability organisations
• Continuous attitude to improvement• Learning culture• Highly trained • Rewarded staff• Flexibility to deal with change• ‘Collective mindfulness’ about safety issues• Leadership and frontline staff take a shared responsibility
for ensuring care is delivered safely

How do we build a safety culture?
• Sir Stephen Moss (Day 3)– ‘developing a safety culture doesn’t happen overnight’.
• Martin Bromley– ‘culture change isn’t about doing one thing – it’s about
doing lots of little things consistently and with purpose (whilst maintaining coordination).’
• SRFT– consistent leadership, building a sense of individual
responsibility at every level.
Measuring & Understanding Culture is a good start!
• Culture Assessment Tools• Staff Surveys• Patient and Carer Surveys• Complaints / Compliments• Incidents• Successes!!!!
• Health care organisations can use these survey assessment tools to:– Raise staff awareness about patient safety.– Diagnose and assess the current status of patient safety culture.– Identify strengths and areas for patient safety culture
improvement.– Examine trends in patient safety culture change over time.– Evaluate the cultural impact of patient safety initiatives and
interventions.– Conduct internal and external comparisons.
