Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
A major weakness of current incident reporting systems is that they produce little actual change. The perceived lack of learning and absence of relevance to the local work environment may have a
detrimental impact on the willingness of staff to contribute to incident reporting. As part of the Health Foundation Safer Clinical Systems (SCS) programme, a novel approach to organisational learning – Proactive Risk Monitoring in Healthcare (PRIMO) – was developed and implemented in a hospital dispensary during 2008 - 2010. The results of the pilot study suggested that PRIMO generated actionable learning, and that it had a positive effect on safety culture within the dispensary. The pilot study recognised that there was a need to test the approach in other settings. The study described in this report investigated the implementation of PRIMO in two diverse settings, and sought to identify factors that contribute to, or that inhibit, the successful implementation of the approach. The findings should be of use to practitioners who are looking to complement their existing approaches to organisational learning. The findings should also be of interest to researchers and
practitioners, who are trying to understand factors that affect the success of service improvement approaches more generally.
