was very interesting and educational. Made aware of human factors and how they influence our behaviour and play a part in causing medical accidents

A very thorough introduction into human factors, with both very interesting and relevant examples.

Human factors play a big role, in addition to knowledge in clinical scenarios.

An entertaining review of why mistakes happen because of human error. Broken down into types of error and related to our work in medicine, it does provide an opportunity to reflect on one's own practice.

A well presented and interesting subject about human factors and how they can influence our behaviour and work. Excellent examples and led to good discussion.

An essential introduction for anyone who wishes to understand why medical accidents happen, illustrated with examples from the aviation industry and, closer to home, healthcare settings.
