Summary, etc. This book accompanied the training course of the same name on human factors in the context of the safety-critical issues commonly encountered in the modern healthcare industry. It explains the key strengths and risks that human performance and human limitations bring to clinical and surgical environments. It examines human cognition, cognitive processing, decision-making and situation awareness, and the role of personality type and communication skills in effective team-working and leadership, within the inevitably complex organisational structure of healthcare systems. It also covers the problems associated with stress and fatigue among healthcare professionals, and provides strategies for recognising and managing them in the workplace.
