Mismatches between job requirements and workers capabilities provide the potential
for human error. People bring to their job personal attitudes, skills, habits and
personality which can be strengths or weaknesses depending on the task demands.
Characteristics such as personality are fixed and cannot be changed but skills and
attitudes can be changed or enhanced.
Organisational factors have a major influence on individuals and group behaviour
which can be overlooked in the design of work and in the investigation of accidents
and incident .Organisations need to promote an inclusive and positive health and
safety culture. Exploring the human factors surrounding Critical Incidents and helping
the Human at the centre of this.

Speaking Out
Managing

and Others
Ann Butler, SQA Lead, HENW
H1
Patient safety is the first priority for everyone involved in healthcare; we all have a duty to
protect patients and service users, and put their interests first.
The report of the Francis inquiry has raised the profile of patient safety and highlighted the role
that all staff have in raising concerns about the standards of care (Mid Staffordshire NHS
Foundation Trust Public Inquiry, 2013).
All newly qualified staff will face new situations which are unfamiliar and challenging, but this
cannot account for witnessing harm or neglect.
Discussions of how to speak out and examples of changes that have been implemented
supporting Harm Free Care will be explored.

The transition from student to staff nurse is in many ways a personal journey however
I’m sure we can all agree that there are some common themes we can all relate to.
Those first months can be extremely daunting but if you have the right attitude, and of
course the right support, you will soon be wondering why you were so worried.
This short workshop will help you to explore what it is about you that will help you to
make the transition a successful one. We will also look at how to manage your own
expectations and how to build good working relationships with others in your team.
Developing strategies to manage those first months will be an essential part of your
preceptorship toolkit, it will help to keep things in perspective and to keep you
focussed on the important things.
