The
safety huddle has become an important way for hospitals to surface safety
concerns affecting patients and the workforce. The best huddles are
multidisciplinary, highly structured, brief (15 minutes or less), take place
early in the morning and focus on incidents from the day before and risks to
safety in the day ahead. Is the safety huddle effective? Have organizations
grown lax with the process over time? This broadcast will check up on the
safety huddle.
