This session has been designed to update Clinical Safety Officers and colleagues in supporting adherence to the DCB safety standards and to remain knowledgeable in the application of Clinical Risk Management (CRM) during the development, implementation and deployment of Health IT.

The session is based on a care scenario and will explore how to follow a CRM process by undertaking a series of activities and being able to list, develop and maintain safety documentation through a project’s life cycle. Particular attention will be given to accurate hazard identification & description and how to evidence effective mitigation from initiating to decommissioning Health IT systems.

There will be an assessment at the end of the session to confirm that learners have understood the CRM process and associated activities in line with the DCB standards.
