I’ve never observed anyone, regardless of field, achieve lasting prominence while voicing rancor or focusing much on the failings of others. Create and share, support others and enjoy. Givers and creators always prevail.

UK space launch: Historic Cornwall rocket launch ends in failure bbc.co.uk/news/science-e… #failure is an emotive word. Useful for attention grabbing headlines,but undermines all the successful collaborative effort and useful lessons that can be learned. #humanfactors #teamwork

How we breathe can have a huge impact on our human performance. Many of us don’t think about it or find it hard to believe. But it’s easy to adopt without others even noticing. Some interesting examples and techniques here from a surgeon. #humanfactors

This. Don’t come to me with an ‘improvement’ for safety or otherwise if it doesn’t also REDUCE workload and/or task complexity for those providing patient care.

Thank you for the invitation to speak NUH Maternity …an honour to be invited. An amazing event, so well organised ! It’s a huge privilege to play our part in your #culturechange journey showcasing how behavioural #humanfactors is such a key component.

Tragic case. Often there's no single root cause with holes in many layers that should provide safety barriers. How many of us resort to improvisation/workarounds to get the job done? Whenever something is unusual, it's worth pausing to check with fresh eyes.. #humanfactors

Amused to be asked if we were no longer in practice as we hadn't posted for a while. In fact we've been too busy with #humanfactors projects in #dentistry #maternitysafety and #meded to get round to it. Huge thanks to those involved.

Last week saw us deliver on an innovative educational solution to embed #humanfactors in foundation training for #dentistry. Huge thanks to all collaborators working towards #patientsafety and #teamwork in dentistry and dental education.

bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan… Certainly not the 'planes we fly'. Looking fwd to observing more robotic #surgery tmrw (not @ hospital cited) for us to share ideas & collaborate on common #humanfactors challenges of #teamwork, maintaining #situationalawareness & #communication.

In aviation we take it for granted that events can be unraveled to understand what happened and why, with comprehensive investigation and learning outcomes. Behavioural #humanfactors typically feature heavily,both as contributors & safety barriers. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/wit…

🆕We've published the first in a series of reports that look at #NHSWorkforce & #PatientSafety. Our safety recommendations to NHS England aim to increase the engagement of temporary staff in patient safety investigations and provide them with more support. hssib.org.uk/patient-safety…

So important to include all the team in a culture of #patientsafety . Everyone has a role to play and a contribution to make. So important we value the contributions & heed the concerns of all the team.

Effective communication can be challenging, as it requires conscious effort to ensure the message is clear for others,has been received and acted upon. #humanfactors #Communication is so easy in theory but a real skill in practice. 1/2

Other industries recognise the value in training their teams to #communicate effectively, recognising the importance of getting the message through and checking for an appropriate response. 2/2
