Learning ObjectivesLearning Objectives
• To understand the differences between technical and adaptive work
• To understand the role of senior leaders in addressing both types of work in QI efforts
• To share tactics used successfully by senior executives and leaders to support QI

GoalsGoals
• Initially work to eliminate central line associated blood stream infections (CLABSI); state mean < 1/10000 catheter days, median 0, (then Surgical Site Infections, and finally Ventilator Associated Pneumonia).
• To improve safety culture by 50%• To learn from one defect per month• To increase Executive participation in your quality
and safety activites.

Technical WorkTechnical Work
• Addresses problems for which the definition is clear, the potential solutions are reasonably clear, and usually require little or minimal learning
• Responsibility for implementing a solution is reasonably clear between leaders and followers.

Leadership Without Easy AnswersLeadership Without Easy Answers(Heifetz, 1994)(Heifetz, 1994)
• Leadership is
“activity to mobilize adaptive work” (p. 27).

Adaptive WorkAdaptive Work
• Addresses problems that require a change in attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors
• Involves shared responsibility for change: leaders share responsibility with organizational staff and key stakeholders.

• Is everyone clear on the goals, timelines, and mission?
• Is the necessary structure in place – people, roles, authority and responsibility?
• Are decision making, problem solving and conflict management processes clear?
• Are material resources in place – space, equipment, people, budgets (Senior Executive can help)?
• Are financial tracking mechanisms in place (CMS P4P implications)

Identify Defects
• Review error reports, liability claims, sentinel eventsor M&M conference
• Ask staff how the next patient will be harmed

One way to make harm visible-- get staff thinking and talking about safety and how
to improve it
How are We Going to Harm the Next Patient?
![Page 25: CSTS: The Cardiovascular Surgical Translational Study Senior Leadership of Quality and Safety Initiatives in Health Care Peter J. Pronovost, MD, PhD The](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0c9f1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Step 2: Staff Identify Defects
Frontline caregivers are the eyes and ears of patient safety
• Identify clinical or operational problems that negatively impact patient safety (have or could)
• Use the Staff Safety Assessment tool– How will the next patient be harmed in our unit– What can be done to minimize patient harm or prevent this safety
hazard
• Clinical area managers and CUSP team review suggestions, set the agenda for discussion with executive partner

Appendix C
STAFF SAFETY ASSESSMENT – CUSP
Please describe how you think the next patient in your unit/clinical area will be harmed.
Name (optional): Job Category: Date: Unit:
Please describe what you think can be done to prevent or minimize this harm.
Thank you for helping improve safety in your workplace!
Purpose of this form: The purpose of this form is to tap into your knowledge and experiences at the frontlines of patient care to find out what risks are present on your unit that have or could jeopardize patient safety. Who should complete this form: All health care providers. How to complete this form: Provide as much detail as possible when answering the 2 questions. Drop off your completed safety assessment form in the location designated by the CUSP improvement team with your job category, date and unit in the top box (name is optional). When to complete this form: Assessing safety should be considered an iterative process with no defined end (like a moving bicycle wheel). Thus, it can be filled out by any health care provider at any time. At the very least, all health care providers should complete this form semiannually.
![Page 27: CSTS: The Cardiovascular Surgical Translational Study Senior Leadership of Quality and Safety Initiatives in Health Care Peter J. Pronovost, MD, PhD The](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0c9f1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Step 2: Staff Identify DefectsStep 2: Staff Identify Defects
• What Team Leaders need to do:• Hand out a Staff Safety Assessment form to all staff, clinical
and non-clinical, in the unit
• Establish a collection box or envelope
• Identify and group common defects (such as communication, medications, patient falls, supplies, etc.)
• Summarize as frequencies (i.e., what percent of responses were for communication)
![Page 28: CSTS: The Cardiovascular Surgical Translational Study Senior Leadership of Quality and Safety Initiatives in Health Care Peter J. Pronovost, MD, PhD The](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0c9f1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Prioritize DefectsPrioritize Defects
• List all defects
• Discuss with staff what are the three greatest risks
![Page 29: CSTS: The Cardiovascular Surgical Translational Study Senior Leadership of Quality and Safety Initiatives in Health Care Peter J. Pronovost, MD, PhD The](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0c9f1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Step 2: Staff Identify Defects
• Report the identified defects to staff, executive partner
• ICU managers and CUSP team prioritize defects identified by the potential level of risk to the patient
• Select one to work on with support of Executive
• Step 2 should be ongoing
