A Checklist Everyone in the Room Can See
This wall-mounted, clear acrylic board takes safety checklists out of one
pair of hands and displays them so everyone in the room can see them,
encouraging the entire team to participate, which could improve communication and reduce errors. OR staff must physically move the sliders from red
to green to show the process, function or detail is complete, says Checklist
Boards Corporation. Checklists are available for time outs, endoscopy procedures and counts, but the company will design them for any procedure.
