Critical Incidence Numbers on the Rise in Saskatchewan The - TopicsExpress



          

Critical Incidence Numbers on the Rise in Saskatchewan The Ministry of Health released their 2013-2014 Annual Report on Monday, July 28, 2014, and given what SUN members have been telling Provincial for the past year the results are of little surprise. The total number of Critical Incidents reported – 195 – is the largest since reporting began in 2005. This represents a 21.1% one-year increase over 2012-2013, and a 53.5% two-year increase over 2011-2012. More than half of all Critical Incidents were once again defined as Care Management incidents. “When we look at the concerns members have been raising, the results of our recent membership survey on Lean and now these increases in Critical Incident numbers, it paints a worrying picture of how patient safety continues to be a major concern in our province,” says Denise Dick, SUN First Vice-President. sun-nurses.sk.ca/communications/news-events/news/item/?n=111
