Overview: The SEIPS pilot project applied the SEIPS model to patient safety in outpatient surgery. The pilot project examined the impact of a system intervention on different processes.
An examination of the system intervention performed includes:
- the work system;
- employee and organizational outcomes; and
- quality and safety of patient care.
