Structure- healthcare • Healthcare management structures in Australia
deficient in many key systems regarded as essential in high reliability industries: – Consistent staff competency assessment and re-
validation process – Accountability and governance – Standard operating procedures
• ISO 9001 quality management system specifies the essential cogs and wheels required

Root cause analysis • Formal method used to analyse serious adverse events • Identify underlying problems that increase the
likelihood of errors, taking the focus away from mistakes by individuals.
• Causal statements are generated through event mapping and investigation of links between context, events, actions and patient outcomes.
• Ultimate goal – learn from error/mistakes - prevent future patient harm by proposing system changes

RCA Limitations • RCA effectiveness in lowering risk or improving
medical safety not systematically established • Quality of RCA dependent on accuracy of input data
as well as capability/experience /effectiveness of RCA team
• Open to political hijack • Accidents assumed to be caused by failures or
malfunctions.

An alternative perspective on accident investigation
“Things basically happen in the same way, regardless of outcome. The purpose of an investigation is to understand how things usually go right as a basis for explaining how things occasionally go wrong.”

‘High reliability organisations’ US Navy nuclear aircraft carriers, nuclear power plants, and air traffic control centres had these defining characteristics: • They were complex, internally dynamic, and,
intermittently, intensely interactive • They performed exacting tasks under considerable
time pressure • They had carried out these demanding activities
with low incident rates and an almost complete absence of catastrophic failures over several years
James Reason . Human error: models and management BMJ 2000;320:768–70
![Page 19: Nationally coordinated IPC initiatives – lessons learnt from the … › assets › Infection-Prevention › PR › 2016... · 2016-09-08 · Nationally coordinated IPC initiatives](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070803/5f0300c17e708231d4070ef1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Paradoxes of high reliability • Traditional view: human unreliability attributed to
unwanted variability and strive to eliminate it as far as possible.
• High reliability organisations: recognise that human variability in the shape of compensations and adapta-tions to changing events represents one of the system's most important safeguards. Reliability is “a dynamic non-event.” Dynamic = safety preserved by timely human adjustments; Non-event = successful outcomes rarely call attention to themselves.
James Reason . Human error: models and management BMJ 2000;320:768–70

High reliability organisations
“Perhaps the most important distinguishing feature of high reliability organisations is their collective preoccupation with the possibility of failure. They expect to make errors and train their workforce to recognise and recover them. They continually rehearse familiar scenarios of failure and strive hard to imagine novel ones. Instead of isolating failures, they generalise them. Instead of making local repairs, they look for system reforms.”

ACSQHC Structure
• Established 2006 to lead and coordinate national improvements in safety and quality in health care
• National Health Reform Act 2011 (NHR Act) which established the Commission as a corporate Commonwealth entity under the Public Governance, Performance and Accountability Act 2013 (PGPA Act).
• Joint funding etc

ACSQHC Process: committees & modus operandi
• Expert groups – HAI Advisory Committee – AMS Advisory Committee
• Inter-Jurisdictional Committee – IJC will consider and provide advice to the Commission on the following: – The Commission’s programs, standards, guidelines and indicators and the
implementation of these; – The maintenance of effective working relationships with key stakeholders to facilitate
the work of the Commission; – Safety and quality issues regarding the Australian health care system; and – The process for collecting and reporting on national data on safety and quality issues.
• Liaison – Primary Care Committee
• The PCC is responsible for facilitating the engagement and uptake of Commission programs in the primary health care sector.
– Private Hospital Sector Committee • The PHSC is responsible for advising the Commission on key safety and quality initiatives from
the perspective of the private hospital sector.

ACSQHC Outcomes- in sequence
• Surveillance review and programs- SAB, CDI • National performance measures • NSQHS Standards • National IPC Guidelines- revision • Hand Hygiene Australia • Capacity building • AMS etc • CPE Guidelines

ACSQHC Tips for success
• Engagement of leaders – National – State and territory – Hospital – Professional organisations – Clinicians
• Provide “carrots” before the “stick” • National coordination • Recognise that “not one size fits all”
![Page 27: Nationally coordinated IPC initiatives – lessons learnt from the … › assets › Infection-Prevention › PR › 2016... · 2016-09-08 · Nationally coordinated IPC initiatives](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070803/5f0300c17e708231d4070ef1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Other Australian national enablers • National communicable disease structures
– CDNA – PHLN – Laboratory : NPAAC, NATA, AGAR and NRL
• ACIPC – Credentialing – Journal – Research
• ASID & ASM • NHMRC research groups:
– N Graves group etc – AMS group etc
• ACHS and other accreditation assessors • Private Hospitals

Major Australian structural deficiencies
• Lack national Centre for Communicable Disease Control: • reliance on Expert panels for policy development • no centre for collation and epidemiological analysis of HAI
data • MRSA, VRE, CPE, C. difficile historically not regarded as
public health problems per se by some jurisdictions and the federal apparatus
• Aged care governance sits outside of ACSQHC’s province and the NSQHCS

Standard 3: challenges and priorities
1. Surveillance: performance assessment 2. National Hand Hygiene Program: medical
compliance and wider engagement with IPC and AMS processes
3. Enhancing Standard Precautions: safer healthcare environments
4. CAUTI prevention 5. National surveillance: critique of current programs 6. Resourcing and implementation of antimicrobial
stewardship across all healthcare settings

SAB surveillance What has worked well • Comprehensive coverage • Captures non-inpatient
events • High prominence –
publically reported, top level performance indicator; managers engaged++
Work still to do • Incident level reporting to
enable better analyses and data validation
• Private lab/hospital reports • Linkage of epidemiological
typing data • Public Health involvement –
MRSA issues in indigenous and RACF populations
• Many research level questions

CDI surveillance
What has worked well • Surveillance definition –
few grey zones • Periodic snapshots with
subtyping • Has provided assurance
that epidemic CDI has not emerged in Australia
• High community rates
Work still to do • Test utilisation not
standardised • National reporting of HCA
CDI rates • Data completeness &
validation • Utility of CDI surveillance
for AMS/ IPC performance judgement?

The Clinical Care Standard for AMS Tackling AMS at the patient level
Nine (9) statements describing best practice for managing a person who has, or is suspected of having a bacterial infection, regardless of setting.
• For patients: describes the care they can expect to receive throughout the patient journey.
• For clinicians: gives clear guidance about what they need to do.
• For health services: systems are in place to support all clinicians in providing the care that is expected.
