1 Protecting the Public through Disciplinary Action Maryann Alexander, PhD, RN, FAAN Kathleen Russell, JD, RN
2 The Board s Duty Is To Protect The Public Not Punish The Licensee
3 Criminal Justice System Punishment does not improve behavior Emphasis is needed on examining what happened and how can we prevent you from doing this again. Support and resources lessen the chance of recidivating.
4 TERCAP Data Individuals disciplined by their employer have a much higher chance of being disciplined by the board of nursing at sometime in the future
5 ,000 people die from medical errors a year (Andel, et al, 2012) More than 130,000 Medicare beneficiaries experienced one or more adverse events in hospitals in a single month. (HHS, OIG, 2012). When quality life adjusted years (QALYs) are applied to patients that die, the errors committed on an annual basis translates into $1 trillion dollars a year (Andel, et al, 2012)
6 What does all this mean? Regulation and health care facilities need to work together. We need to effectively prevent errors. Examine system as well as individual errors. Punishment may not be the best option for preventing future errors or poor performance. Remediation, counseling, supervision are tools that need to be considered as part of disciplinary action.
7 Punishment People tend to hide errors Prevents fixing the system Risk to patient Focus is on punishment Effective when used in the right way.
8 Questions When do we take no action? When do we counsel, remediate and supervise? When do we punish/remove from practice?
9 Just Culture a system of justice (disciplinary and enforcement action) that reflects what we now know of socio-technical system design, human free will and our inescapable human fallibility.
10 The Just Culture Model (simplified) Human Error At-Risk Behavior Reckless Behavior Product of Our Current System Design and Behavioral Choices Manage through changes in: Choices Processes Procedures Training Design Environment A Choice: Risk Believed Insignificant or Justified Manage through: Removing incentives for at-risk behaviors Creating incentives for healthy behaviors Increasing situational awareness Conscious Disregard of Substantial and Unjustifiable Risk Manage through: Remedial action Punitive action Console Coach Punish 2012
11 2012 System versus Individual Errors
12 System Errors May be due to a deficit in the institution s policies and/or procedures May be due to other providers in the health care system Often a combination of factors
13 Human Error
14 Human Error Can happen to high performers with no history of past error Discipline may not prevent Remediation may not be needed
15 Risk-Taking Behavior Justifiable Risk
16 Risk-Taking Behavior May need remediation/counseling May need discipline/supervision
17 Reckless the police.
18 Reckless Discipline Remediation/supervision/counseling/job transfer
19 The Just Culture Model (simplified) Human Error At-Risk Behavior Reckless Behavior Product of Our Current System Design and Behavioral Choices Manage through changes in: Choices Processes Procedures Training Design Environment A Choice: Risk Believed Insignificant or Justified Manage through: Removing incentives for at-risk behaviors Creating incentives for healthy behaviors Increasing situational awareness Conscious Disregard of Substantial and Unjustifiable Risk Manage through: Remedial action Punitive action Console Coach Punish 2012
20 The Just Culture Model A Single Event Repetitive Events Repetitive errors yes, there is a process Repetitive at-risk behaviors yes, there is a process Both may lead to disciplinary action
21 Remediation Alternative to Discipline Programs Only effective if the remediation is truly directed towards preventing future occurrence. Monitoring and mentoring. Institution must be aware and involved.
22 Deliberate Behavior Discipline May warrant permanent revocation of license
23 Regulatory Action Pathway Consistent way of evaluating BON cases Based on principles of James Reason, Just Culture, patient safety movement Transparent Patient centered Relies on remediation Partnership with hospitals
24 Regulatory Action Pathway Encourage good choices beginning with reporting and identification of errors that might lead to better systems Identify the difference between errors that are caused by human fallibility, risk-taking behaviors and recklessness Direct discipline according to the type of error.
25 Regulatory Action Pathway Patient centered Examines intention and distinguishes between types of errors Encourages reporting of errors Encourages partnership between BON and institution Emphasis on corrective activities Accounts for system related issues Looks at repeated occurrences Discipline when needed
