FMEA: Proactively Addressing Gaps in Patient Safety

This in-person interactive training equips healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to apply Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) to proactively identify and mitigate risks in clinical processes. Participants will explore the history, purpose, and proven applications of FMEA, including its role in driving patient safety and meeting compliance requirements.

Through best practice frameworks, real-world case studies, and hands-on exercises, learners will:

• Understand the key drivers for using FMEA in healthcare.

• Identify the factors that contribute to a successful FMEA.

• Apply practical steps to prioritize risks and plan effective interventions.

• Strengthen communication and hand-off strategies to ensure process improvements are sustained.

By the end of the session, participants will be ready to integrate FMEA into their organization’s safety and quality programs to maximize patient care outcomes.
