Establishing a pediatric family-initiated
safety reporting program
Experience #1
The problem…
• More than 9% of children in hospitals in Canada experience an adverse event
• The risk of having an adverse event was nearly 3-fold higher in academic pediatric centers than in community hospitals
Adverse Events Among Children in Canadian Hospitals:The Canadian Paediatric Adverse Events Study
Matlow AG, Baker R, et al (2012)
• Volunteers engage families• Families report safety concerns at the
bedside using a laptop and a tested, validated web-based tool
• Quality Leader reviews reports• Staff and leaders use feedback for action
planning and quality improvement
Next steps?
• Spread to other units• Utilize tablets/iPads/apps• Engage families from all ethnicities
and cultures
• Make “Patient’s View” application available on the Internet
• Close the loop with families; results on a web site• Engage families in improvement projects
Patients, residents, and families will experience culturally safe, socially just, person and family centered care across our systeccm.
