Book: Patient Safey: The PROACT Root Cause Analysis Approach
By: Robert J. Latino
"Bridging proactive technologies from industry to healthcare - "Mr. Latino's book reflects how RCA can be used to address serious patient safety risk opportunities ...I believe this book would be welcomed in the healthcare field."
Fay A. Rozovsky, JD, MPH, The Rozovsky Group, Inc./RMS
Patient Safety: The PROACT® Root Cause Analysis Approach
This book addresses the proactive methodologies and organizational paradigms that must change in order to support and sustain such activities in the interest of patient safety. Written by reliability expert Robert J. Latino, this book provides a perspective on patient care from outside the health industry and culture. It teaches a proven approach that measures its effectiveness based on patient safety results, rather than compliance, and demonstrates the Return-On-Investment for using RCA to reduce and/or eliminate undesirable outcomes.
Addressing the contribution of human error to physical consequences, it explores ways to identify conditions which are more prone to result in human error. It also uses FMEA to proactively identify unacceptable risks, and then uses the concepts of RCA to prevent risks from materializing.
