International interest
What we have learned:
We are not alone.
What we have learned:
Safety is not top of mind.
Every 13 minutes and 14 seconds a patient dies in Canada from preventable harm in healthcare
Patient safety incidents rank thirdbehind cancer and heart disease

What we have learned:
Learning from failure is an opportunity that is often missed.
What we have learned:
There are a lot of good people working hard in the “system.”
“Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets”
What we have learned:
Technology isn’t the hurdle… or the silver bullet.
What we have learned:
There are pockets of innovation but not evenly distributed and it doesn’t spread.
What we have learned:
There is a gap between the exciting initiatives that we hear about and the patients stories that are shared with us.
What we have learned:
Communication and flow of information are big problems.
What we have learned:
Status Quo is not OK.
Some people are ready for change and want to be a part of it.
So now what?
Think big – Dream forward –We need to do it together
• Imagine if patients (and their families/loved ones) were considered part of their care team
• Imagine if everyone understood the role they could play in the future of our healthcare system

Team Scheme
Teamwork vs Group work
Teamwork makes the dream work
• Everyone has a role and diverse perspectives are required
• Cultural/mindset shift is needed• Teams evolve over time but
everyone must understand who is on the team and who is leading at any particular moment
• Strengths and potential weaknesses are understood
• Team members are utilized to their maximum potential and gaps are filled when needed
Innovation & Impact
• Innovation is about doing things differently
• Innovation may be an improvement but simply improving things isn’t innovation
Role of technology & digital health
• Communication and information flow are critical
• Everyone on the team needs access to information to make safe and informed decisions
• Tools to be utilized to maximize team potential
How do we get there?
• Patient Safety always needs to be top of mind
• Systems thinking – big picture• Information architecture and tools
that enable the flow of information to all team members
• Teamwork mindset is the foundation
“Optimism isn’t a belief that things will automatically get better; it’s a conviction that we can make things better.”
– Melinda Gates
