Enumerate the different measures that can be adopted to minimize the risk of health care worker and explain role of Personal Protective Equipment.

To navigate the healthcare risk continuum healthcare organizations and risk managers need to:

Identify Risk
Since risk management involves managing uncertainty and new risk is constantly emerging, it is challenging to recognize all the threats a healthcare entity faces. However, through the use of data, institutional and industry knowledge, and by engaging everyone — patients, employees, administrators, and payers—healthcare risk managers can uncover threats and potentially compensatory events that otherwise would be hard to anticipate.

Quantify & Prioritize Risk
Once identified, it is vital to score, rank, and prioritize risks based on their likelihood and impact of occurrence and then allocate resources and assign tasks based on these measures. To accomplish this, risk matrices and heat maps can be deployed that will also help to visualize risks and promote communication and collaborative decision-making.

Investigate & Report Sentinel Events
Coined by the Joint Commission, Sentinel Events are “any unanticipated event in a healthcare setting resulting in death or serious physical or psychological injury to a patient or patients, not related to the natural course of the patient’s illness.” When a sentinel event occurs, quick response and thorough investigation address immediate patient safety issues and reduce future risk.
