The broad aim of the webinar is to promote After Action Review (AAR) as a valuable tool to promote learning and patient safety improvement.
We want to:
• Show how AAR can support, empower and enable teams to identify learning and good practice
• Share knowledge on how to apply AAR for impact
• Excite potential new users to adopt this approach
Judy Walker, a leading expert in AAR and its adoption for impact in healthcare, will set the scene explaining ‘What is AAR, why is it so valuable and what helps successfully embed it in organisations.”
To demonstrate that AAR is a practical and valuable ‘how to tool,’ we want to share case study evidence from healthcare clinicians and leaders. We’re looking to showcase the experience of 3 or 4 organisations, sharing why they have adopted AAR and the benefits planned and impact.
