𝐔𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐍𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬: 𝐀 𝐂𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 In healthcare, a near miss (often called a "good catch") is an event that could have resulted in patient harm but did not, thanks to timely intervention. While these incidents may seem minor, they are invaluable opportunities for improvement. By analyzing near misses, healthcare providers can better understand root causes, identify process gaps, and implement changes to prevent future incidents. Here are Seven Examples of Near Misses: 1. 𝐄𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐀𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬: A nurse notices that the hallway floors were recently mopped but without a wet floor caution sign. Recognizing the potential hazard, the nurse quickly places a sign in the hallway to prevent slips and falls. 2. 𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐃𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥: An employee detects ink smears on the label of a specimen, which could have led to a misidentification. She replaces it with a clear, legible label before sending it to the lab. 3. 𝐕𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐲: Before starting a surgical procedure, the team discovers that the incorrect limb was prepped and draped. This near-miss could have led to wrong-site surgery, but swift action prevented a serious error. 4. 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: A set of EKG strips containing a patient's private information is left on a worktable. A vigilant LPN notices and conceals it to prevent a potential breach of privacy. 5. 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐲: A pair of non-skid socks is left behind in a high-risk patient’s room. Noticing the risk, a nurse alerts a supervisor to prevent possible injury. 6. 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞𝐭𝐲: A nurse preparing to administer an injection realizes that the medication has expired, averting potential harm by not proceeding with the administration. 7. 𝐃𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐕𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞: A patient care technician identifies that a breakfast tray with solid foods was mistakenly delivered to a patient on a liquid diet. The tray is removed before the patient consumes anything. At Ladwa, we're committed to making the world safer by promoting awareness and education around safety practices. Let's continue to learn from near misses to ensure a safer environment for everyone. #HealthcareSafety #PatientSafety #NearMiss #SafetyManagement #LadwaSolutions

RECEPTION, MY BUDDY “You seem to want that vivida vis animi which spurs and excites most young men to please , to shine and to excel. without the desire and pains necessary to be considerable, depend upon it, You never can be so. ~Lord Chesterfield Reception is the identity of the laboratory - it's where patients form their first impression. The front desk and Phlebotomy areas play key roles in patient care. Processing patients on the Laboratory Information System and billing are just a part of the job - effective communication and self-control are vital when dealing with patients and medical professionals. Rejecting samples is challenging but crucial for ensuring quality results. Cooperation between clinicians and lab staff is essential for the benefit of the patients. Remember, "your result is as good as your sample." #LaboratoryOperations #PatientCare #HealthcareCommunication #ProudBiomedicalScientist. #NSSDIARIES

Founder of CodePRep™ | Healthcare Emergency Response Training | Nurse Innovator | Educator | Speaker | Solutions Specialist
High-Performance Practice Alert ❗ ❗ Never underestimate the POWER of being PREPARED. One of the teams I've been working with, consistently drilling in their specialized space (small treatment rooms with specialized equipment and a stretcher) to prepare for a code, experienced a real-life emergency. Their preparation paid off. I received the call: "We had a code. Can you go over it with us?" A stable, chatting patient suddenly went from talking about Starbucks to experiencing snoring respirations in a FLASH—sudden cardiac arrest! Here's what happened next: The nurse recognized the problem and called for help. The physician immediately started CPR upon arrival. (the physician did compressions!!) The team got the crash cart, applied the pads, identified the rhythm, charged, shocked, and got a pulse... The ENTIRE code took just 1.5 minutes!!! The patient went to the Cath lab and then HOME 🧡 WOW BRAVO!! #beprepared #highperformance #teamwork #codedrillls #debrief
