Professional Education Program for Sustainable Patient Care Safety

Why this training?
The Covid-19 crisis emphasizes the need for continuous adaptation to emerging risks in the healthcare system. This requires a change of perspective not only in times of crisis, but also in day-to-day dealings within the complex system. Greater patient safety requires proactive, risk-oriented action. Our training enables a change of perspective and promotes a new attitude for the future.

Focus: The human factor
This certificate is based on a systemic understanding of patient safety in the clinical environment. Particular attention is paid to organizational factors such as safety culture and the “human factor”. Successful concepts from aviation are presented and transferred to clinical situations using case studies.

Our speakers are experienced scientists and safety experts from the aviation industry as well as practitioners in patient safety projects. The curriculum is based on the WHO model curriculum on patient safety, the learning objectives catalog of the Patient Safety Action Alliance and highlights specific aspects of the AHRQ report 2020 “Making Health Care Safer III”.

Testimonials

Previous approaches in the area of patient safety have been primarily characterized by reacting to errors in order to avoid them in the future. However, patient safety concerns much more than just avoiding errors and certain complications. Rather, patient safety must be understood as an inherent characteristic of teams and organizations.
It was very interesting to learn about the various factors of factual and human performance requirements and their effects. Especially in the operating room, where work is often done under time pressure and with changing team members, errors can be consciously avoided through good patient safety management.
I am delighted that the new certificate program “Patient Safety” has been launched by TUM’s Medical Faculty and the Klinikum rechts der Isar in close cooperation with TUM Campus Straubing, the Klinikum St. Elisabeth Straubing and Lufthansa Aviation Training. Due to the advances made in the digitalization of medicine and the increasingly complex processes involved in treatment, the topic of patient safety is becoming ever more important in our clinics and hospitals. The interdisciplinary partnership of medicine, research and business holds the promise of innovative and dynamic strategies for the responsible handling of risks posed by modern medicine.
