This course will introduce learners to the approach of thematic analysis for safety investigations. Thematic Analysis allow the identification of patterns across organisational data to generate insights on safety themes and issues. The focus of the course is to help learners understand how thematic analysis can be applied within their own organisations, what factors they might consider in using the approach and some of the challenges in using it as part of the broader patient safety strategy.
Oure aim is that by demystifying this form of analysis it will allow you to reflect on how you may have already used this approach to some extent, but also how you could expand or introduce this approach to enhance organisational learning.
