Evaluation reports the impact of a new incident learning system on reporting and safety culture within a local health district, suggesting improved risk mitigation in radiation therapy.
Safety and quality improvement are essential to clinical practice in radiation therapy as planning and treatment increase in complexity and sophistication. An incident learning system (ILS) is a safety and quality improvement tool that can aid risk mitigation to improve patient safety and quality of care. The aim of this study was to quantify the impact of implementing a new e-ILS, Learning In Radiation ONcology (LIRON), on reporting and safety culture within a local health district (LHD).
