A proposito di questo titolo

Stories of Safety is a podcast that delves into the stories, science, and policy that have shaped
health care safety. Hosted by patient safety researcher Professor Jane O’Hara, and funded and
delivered by National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Yorkshire & Humber Patient
Safety Research Collaboration (PSRC), this series brings together leading voices from the UK and
beyond to explore a deceptively simple yet crucial question: How safe are we, and how can we
improve?
Through insightful conversations with researchers, patients and families, policymakers, and
those on the front lines, Stories of Safety explores the complexity of health care and the
challenges of managing and measuring safety.
Join us as we navigate the ever-evolving world of patient safety—one story at a time.

  • 5: Episode 5 - Pascale Carayon
    Nov 1 2025
    In this episode of Stories of Safety, we speak with Professor Pascale Carayon, Professor Emerita at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA, and a global leader in applying human factors and systems engineering to healthcare and patient safety. Professor Carayon reflects on the evolving role of human factors engineering, from her early development of the SEIPS (Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety) model to its widespread influence on healthcare system design and quality improvement.
    We explore how engineering, human factors/ergonomics, and organisational design can be harnessed to prevent harm, redesign complex care systems, and foster safer, more resilient healthcare environments.

    This episode invites listeners to consider how thoughtful system design can reduce errors and enhance safety.
    A deep insightful conversation with one of the field’s most respected architects of health care systems engineering.

  • 4: Episode 4 - Hardeep Singh
    Oct 1 2025
    In this episode of Stories of Safety, we speak with Professor Hardeep Singh, a leading authority on diagnostic excellence and patient safety, to explore some of the most pressing safety challenges of the last two decades.
    Professor Singh discusses the persistent burden of diagnostic error, why it matters, how it affects patients and clinicians, and what can be done to reduce its impact. We also examine the critical role of health information technology, and why patient safety must be central to its design and use.
    This episode invites listeners to reflect on how healthcare systems can learn from past challenges, leverage innovation responsibly, and move towards safer, more reliable care.
    A thought-provoking conversation about advancing patient safety in an increasingly digital world.

  • 3: Episode 3 - Jo Wailling
    Jun 23 2025
    Content warning: this episode includes discussion on suicide.


    In this episode of Stories of Safety, we speak with Dr Jo Wailling, a leading expert on healthcare harm, to unpack one of the most complex and challenging concepts in patient safety.

    Jo reflects on what we really mean when we talk about “harm” in healthcare—how it's defined, experienced, and responded to by both professionals and patients. We delve into the emotional and systemic dimensions of harm, and the importance of moving beyond blame to foster learning, accountability, and healing.

    This episode invites listeners to reflect on how we acknowledge and address harm in a way that supports those affected and drives genuine improvement across healthcare systems.

    A powerful conversation about one of the most human aspects of safety in care.
