Abstract

Although many error proofing solutions are implemented successfully in healthcare, most of them are implemented after errors cause serious accidents. More proactive approach is needed, and FMEA is considered as a useful method for this purpose and applied by many healthcare institutes. Healthcare inherent situations, however, make the application inefficient. This paper understood that a process of applying FMEA was consisted of three phases and identified the difficulties in each phase. Moreover, It also provided support tools for overcoming these difficulties and discussed the effectiveness of these tools through six actual FMEA projects in healthcare.
