Q1 - What is risk?

Q2 - What is enterprise risk management?
Enterprise risk management (ERM)
“[A] US term coined by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO, 2004) and defined as “a process, effected by an entity’s board of
directors, management and other personnel, applied in strategy setting and across the enterprise, designed to identify potential events that may affect the entity, and
manage risk to be within its risk appetite, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of entity
objectives.” The concept and practice of enterprise risk management is fully addressed by the requirements of ISO
31000:2009 in all but name.”Draft NHG Risk management policy

5.3.2 Risk management policy
The risk management policy should clarify the organization's objectives for and commitment to risk management and should specify the following:
• links between the risk management policy and the organization’s objectives and other policies;
• the organization's rationale for managing risk;
• accountabilities and responsibilities for managing risk;
• the way in which conflicting interests are dealt with;
• the organization’s risk appetite or risk aversion;
• processes, methods and tools to be used for managing risk;
• resources available to assist those accountable or responsible for managing risk;
• the way in which risk management performance will be measured and reported;
• commitment to the periodic review and verification of the risk management policy and framework and its continual improvement; and
• the means by which the risk management policy will be communicated appropriately.
5.3.3 Integration into organizational processes [Risk management plan]
• Risk management should be embedded in all the organization’s practices and business processes so that it is relevant, effective and efficient. The risk management process should become part of and not separate from those organizational processes. In particular, risk management should be embedded into the policy development, business and strategic planning and change management processes.
• There should be an organization-wide risk management plan to ensure that the risk management policy is implemented and that risk management is embedded in all the organization’s practices and business processes.

• Premature discharge of patients leading to death or poor outcome due to bed shortage
Surgeons• Delay or missed diagnosis/treatment
resulting in increased mortality & morbidity• Risk of harming patients associated with
invasive procedures• Long waiting lists resulting in increased
morbidity & complaints• Medication error• Harm to staff due to violent patients
Anaesthetists (1)• Risk associated with equipment failure• Risk associated with inadequate
supervision of trainees• Risk of giving the wrong drug to patient
due to mislabeling• Risk of overdosing patient due to
malfunctioning of PCA• Risk of making unsound judgement after
long hours of duty
Anaesthetists (2)• Risk of malfunctioning of resuscitation
equipment due to lack of maintenance• Risk of improper use of Level I rapid transfuser
in emergency due to inadequate training• Risk of staff injury and equipment failure due
to cables & power cords lying on the OT floor • Risk of injury to staff
– Bumping of head against theatre light– Slip & fall after mopping of OR
Radiology/Pathology• Risk associated with missing specimen or X
ray films• Patient Identification
– Medication, Xray & Path reports– Miss labeling of specimen
• Risk associated with Equipment Maintenance & Validation
• Risk associated with Manual handling• Risk associated with chemical waste handling• Risk associated with understaffing

Describing risk – the ‘3 C’s’1. Risk is inherently negative, implying the
possibility of adverse consequences. Describe the potential consequences if the risk were to materialise
2. Describe the causal factors that could make the risk materialise
3. Ensure that the context of the risk is clear, e.g. is the risk ‘target’ well defined (e.g. staff, patient, department, hospital, etc.) and is the ‘nature’ of the risk clear (e.g. financial, safety, physical loss, perception, etc.)
Which of the following are adequate descriptions of risk?
• Risk to patients due to errors and unsafe clinical practice caused by reduced skill base and competence of junior and middle grade medical staff
• Needlestick injury• OSH• Reduced staff retention and increased sickness
absence due to reduction in morale caused by increased workload, pressure and stress to achieve targets
• Inadequate patient transfer• Budget overrun and financial deficit due to cost of
introducing new technologies/medicines as required by NICE guidance
• Medication error• Loss of use of ICU due to fire
