“I first discovered Being Human in Healthcare in January 2020 when I attended a Human Factors Train the Trainer Course in London. I was so impressed with the way the BH team had designed a Human Factors day unique to healthcare, I returned to MKUH eager to get more faculty on board so we could start to deliver this programme.”

MKUH Faculty comments

“It has been an absolute ‘eye opener’ to witness how staff that would never normally interact on a day-day basis, come together during the course and discuss human factors in groups during the course activities. Hierarchical boundaries dissipate.The course contents appeal to all varieties of staff and teams as there is always something which they can relate to; thus participation is easily enabled with the course design and content.”“The one-day Human Factors course is truly inspirational and will help staff help themselves, and others, to deliver more efficient  and safer care.”
