This series of events and hospital stays has given me a lot of time to observe the patient-staff interactions of a small slice of the healthcare system from the “System Safety” point of view. There are many excellent papers on many safety aspects of the healthcare industry, including Dev Raheja’s extensive writings about many of the system safety issues found with health care facilities. His many “System Safety in Healthcare” articles in the Journal of System Safety cover a wide range of topics, from the importance of system safety analyses for medical hardware to the “softer” human factors issues of providing healthcare. His articles are an excellent source of information, considerations and recommendations for improvements across the field of healthcare. In this article I am looking at the problems from a slightly different perspective, that of a “user” of the healthcare system.
