1 Statewide Patient Safety Culture: North Carolina HSOPS and Medical Office SOPS

2 What is safety culture? The safety culture of an organization is the product of individual and group values, attitudes, perceptions, competencies, and patterns of behavior that determine the commitment to, and the style and proficiency of, an organization's health and safety management. What we believe Value communication Trust each other Perceive the importance of safety Are prepared and confident What we do Practice patterns of behavior that support health and safety Source: Organising for Safety: Third Report of the ACSNI (Advisory Committee on the Safety of Nuclear Installations) Study Group on Human Factors.

3 Sentinel Events Linked to Safety Culture Most Frequently Identified Root Causes of Sentinel Events Reviewed by The Joint Commission Q 2015 Human Factors (n=635) Human Factors (n=547) Human Factors (n=464) Communication (n=563) Leadership (n=517) Leadership (n=382) Leadership (n=547) Communication (n=489) Communication (n=343) The culture of safety the attitudes, beliefs, perceptions, and values that employees share in relation to safety that exists in most health care organizations is weak compared to many other high-risk, complex businesses.

4 Correlations between Safety Culture and Clinical Outcomes

5 Strong safety culture correlated with better clinical outcomes in NC NCQC replicated methods from national studies correlating safety culture (HSOPS) with good clinical outcomes NC hospitals are 7 times more likely to have a few patient safety events if they are also top HSOPS performers NC hospitals with high HSOPS scores have lower rates of infections after colon or abdominal hysterectomy surgeries

6 Correlation between HSOPS and Patient Safety Composite (PSI-90) National data shows correlation between HSOPS percent positive scores and clinical outcomes. NC data also shows safety culture scores related to clinical outcomes. 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Hospitals with good culture scores Hospitals with bad culture scores Hospitals with few patient safety events Hospitals with many patient safety events PSI 90: Agency on Healthcare Research and Quality s Patient Safety Indicator 90 (PSI-90), a component of the HAC reduction program, which aggregates 11 key patient safety indicators.

10 NC HSOPS Key Results NC HSOPS average scores mirror US average Front-line staff report more challenges to patient safety culture than administrators do Staff say they are excellent at reporting patient safety events, but number of events reported matches the national average NC hospitals have strengths in Anesthesiology, Pediatrics work areas and in Organizational Learning composite

13 NC HSOPS Discrepancy between Perceptions of Event Reporting and Number of Events Reported Question Level Responses on Frequency Of Events Reported, NC HSOPS When a mistake is made, but is caught and corrected before affecting the patient, how often is this reported? (D1) (47675 of 49911) When a mistake is made, but has no potential to harm the patient, how often is this reported? (D2) (47537 of 49911) When a mistake is made that could harm the patient, but does not, how often is this reported? (D3) (47339 of 49911) NC Hospitals 63% 62% 64% 63% 74% 74% 55% 60% 65% 70% 75% AHRQ Benchmark 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Staff perceive reporting to be stronger than data shows. Frequency of Events Reported is 67% positive above national average. However, 57% of staff report they have not submitted any event reports in the last year. NC Number of Events Reported: In the past 12 months, how many event reports have you filled out and submitted? 57% No event reports 25% 1 to 2 event reports 11% 3 to 5 event reports 4% 2% 1% 6 to 10 event reports 11 to 20 event reports 21 event reports or more
