Preventing harm to frontline workers via sharing is central to Our Commitment. Learning Event Bulletins (LEBs) focus on ‘unwanted events/threats’ as a trigger to investigate and disseminate lessons learned. We investigate, report, and share the lessons from these ‘High Value Learning Events’ occurring, and use these LEBs to facilitate discussions designed to influence and reinforce positive behaviours focused on helping prevent harm to frontline workers.
