Prof. Raj Behal, MD, MPH, is the Chief Quality Officer and Associate Dean for Quality at Stanford University Hospital. His role is to provide clinical leadership to achieve Stanford’s goal of pre-eminence in clinical quality, safety and efficiency. Raj is an internationally regarded expert in the field of patient safety and clinical leadership and we are delighted to be able to offer members an opportunity to participate in a workshop to share in the expertise that has been developed at Stanford.

One of the key challenges for health services is the increasing complexity of health care delivery for very sick patients. New technologies and therapies have improved survival that necessitates new strategies to enhance recovery and improve quality of life.  A second key challenge remains in variations of care.  From a systems and safety science perspective, increased complexity and variations generate new care-related errors. Fortunately, these same sciences also provide insights into how we can mitigate these issues while advancing care.

In this workshop Raj will explore and discuss;

1.       Significant trends shown in HRT mortality data

2.       Inequality of outcomes

3.       Early identification of the deteriorating patient

4.       Strategies for efficient Root Cause Analysis

Prof Behal will be joined by representatives from the New Zealand Health Quality and Safety Commission who will provide an overview and update of their work in identifying the deteriorating patient.

Who Should Participate? 

This workshop is focused at the senior executive and senior clinical, redesign and quality improvement leaders.   Places are limited to promote interactivity.  Each facility may send up to three delegates at a cost per person of $490AUD

There is an optional networking dinner after the workshop. The cost is $80AUD per person.

This workshop will precede the New Zealand Chapter Meeting (HRT1621b) on 26
th October where themes and emerging issues from this workshop will be further explored in the New Zealand context.
