SHOT – All Wales Working Group

To support implementation of the SHOT recommendations, the BHNOG established a Wales SHOT working group, currently chaired by Rachel Borrell, Transfusion Quality Manager in Cardiff and Vale UHB. The group consists of transfusion related professionals in various roles from all health boards in Wales and acts to proactively utilise the SHOT ideals to improve national transfusion safety.

 

Current areas of focus are:

A Welsh incident reporting tool – to allow ‘live’ review of incident reporting and trends within Wales that could require additional focus by the group.

Human Factors training – a key recommendation from SHOT over recent years. A toolkit to support use of human factors in incident investigation can be found here
