THE COURSE
The Human Factors and Resilience Stream at CHRIS is excited to offer two 2-day problem solving training courses using Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM), to solve everyday problems in healthcare. FRAM is used both retrospectively and prospectively to improve systems to ensure quality and patient safety. It is particularly useful for developing effective ways to accomplish everyday work under varying conditions.
Bring your workplace problem and a laptop, and be guided through the FRAM approach by one of the most experienced experts in the field.
