Join us for an insightful webinar exploring strategies to enhance patient safety in perioperative care.
Debriefing in operating theatre environments leads to benefits in mortality, efficiency, productivity, and safety culture; however, it is still not regularly performed. TALK© is a simple and widely applicable team self-debriefing method to collaboratively learn and improve. This simple intervention for voluntary structured debriefing in operating theatres promoted changes in team behaviour and sustained growth regarding consideration and performance of debriefing.
