Implication

Observational analysis identifies latent safety threats in a busy paediatric emergency department, suggesting effective team-based learning opportunities.

Key Points

In-situ simulation sessions increased staff confidence from 1.8 to 4.2 on a 5-point scale, highlighting improved training effectiveness.
A total of 11 ISS sessions were conducted over 6 months, involving 44 staff members across various roles in the department.
Facilitators actively addressed safety threats identified during ISS sessions, improving overall safety protocols within the department.
Opportunistic ISS sessions were incorporated into regular work schedules, making learning feasible despite high workloads.
