a radical cultural transformation, like the one that has taken place in aviation over the past 30 years,’ the authors argue persuasively. Three positive case studies show that it can be done. ― Jan W. Steenblik, Air Line Pilot (July 2013). Beyond the Checklist recognizes that it takes more than just the standardized execution of processes to create a culture of safety. As the authors reveal, the team intelligence needed in more hospitals can flourish only in a workplace environment where there is proper training, mutual respect, and real cooperation among coworkers. ―Veda Shook, President, Association of Flight Attendants–CWA.

Series: The Culture and Politics of Health Care Work. The coauthors of this book sought out the aviation professionals who made this transformation possible. Beyond the Checklistgives us an inside look at CRM training and shows how airline staff interaction that once suffered from the same dysfunction that too often undermines real teamwork in health care today has dramatically improved. Drawing on the experience of doctors, nurses, medical educators, and administrators, this book demonstrates how CRM can be adapted, more widely and effectively, to health care delivery.
Keywords health care, aviation, safety, teamwork, interpersonal relations. Foreword by Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger. Beyond the Checklist correctly argues that aviation safety was improved through more than just checklists, as important as those are. Checklists alone cannot cure the current fragmentation of patient care or avert tragedies like the loss of twelve-year-old Rory Staunton, who died from undetected septic shock after being dis-charged by New York University Medical Center in summer 2012.

I have often heard that health care should learn from aviation how to incorporate the culture of consumer safety in their deeds. This prompted me to explore answers in Beyond the Checklist: What Else Health Care Can Learn from Aviation Teamwork and Safety. This book is coauthored by Suzanne Gordon, journalist by profession and author of multiple books related to patient safety in health care; Patrick Mendenhall, A-330 airbus pilot with expertise in human factor integration in aviation safety, and Bonnie Blair O’Connor, PhD, professor in pediatrics, and medical educator.

Series:The Culture and Politics of Health Care Work. Cornell university press. Beyond the Checklist argues that lives could be saved and patient care enhanced by adapting the relevant lessons of aviation safety and teamwork. In response to a series of human-error caused crashes, the airline industry developed the system of job training and information sharing known as Crew Resource Management (CRM). In spite of differences between aviation and health care, the similarities are more striking. Both are intrinsically hazardous endeavors, with complex technology, and dominated by one profession.

Beyond the Checklist argues that lives could be saved and patient care enhanced by adapting the relevant lessons o.As we have gone around the country discussing our book Beyond the Checklist: What Else Health Care Can Learn from Aviation Teamwork and Safety, we have been struck by the number of people who insist that healthcare has little to learn from aviation because the two enterprises are entirely different.
The U.S. healthcare system is now spending many millions of dollars to improve "patient safety" and "inter-professional practice." Nevertheless, an estimated 100,000 patients still succumb to preventable medical errors or infections every year. How can health care providers reduce the terrible financial and human toll of medical errors and injuries that harm rather than heal?
Beyond the Checklist argues that lives could be saved and patient care enhanced by adapting the relevant lessons of aviation safety and teamwork. In response to a series of human-error caused crashes, the airline industry developed the system of job training and information sharing known as Crew Resource Management (CRM). Under the new industry-wide system of CRM, pilots, flight attendants, and ground crews now communicate and cooperate in ways that have greatly reduced the hazards of commercial air travel.
The coauthors of this book sought out the aviation professionals who made this transformation possible. Beyond the Checklist gives us an inside look at CRM training and shows how airline staff interaction that once suffered from the same dysfunction that too often undermines real teamwork in health care today has dramatically improved. Drawing on the experience of doctors, nurses, medical educators, and administrators, this book demonstrates how CRM can be adapted, more widely and effectively, to health care delivery.
The authors provide case studies of three institutions that have successfully incorporated CRM-like principles into the fabric of their clinical culture by embracing practices that promote common patient safety knowledge and skills.They infuse this study with their own diverse experience and collaborative spirit: Patrick Mendenhall is a commercial airline pilot who teaches CRM; Suzanne Gordon is a nationally known health care journalist, training consultant, and speaker on issues related to nursing; and Bonnie Blair O'Connor is an ethnographer and medical educator who has spent more than two decades observing medical training and teamwork from the inside.
