Just Culture: The movie
Patient Safety Learning posted an article in Good practice
This film documents the amazing transformation in one organisation — Mersey Care, an NHS mental health trust in the UK. Only a few years ago, blame was common and trust was scarce. Dismissals were frequent: caregivers were suspended without a clear idea of what they might have done wrong. Mersey Care’s journey towards a just and learning culture has repaired and reinvigorated relationships between staff, leaders and service users. It has enhanced people’s engagement, joint ownership and sense of responsibility. It has taken the organisation to a place where hurt doesn’t get met with more hurt, but with healing.- Posted
