Responding to a grant when the reviewers clearly don't have the faintest clue about safety science (because of the chronic misunderstandings continually perpetuated in healthcare) is no fun. How do you address "Encoding information on labels means people won't read it" nonsense?.

It's tragic and frustrating how healthcare continues to ignore the lessons of safety science, human factors, joint cognitive systems, and complex adaptation, instead doubling down on simplistic notions of "error", blame, trying harder, person vs system, and linear determinism.

I’ve seen this many times. How individuals and institutions that can’t think in terms of systems, see error as a moral failing, and can’t admit there are serious management and organizational issues, want to blame one individual for everything.

Regarding scapegoating and Lucy Letby, I think there is a misunderstanding about how institutional scapegoating can work.

Excited to have been elected to the Chair of the International Ergonomics Association's Healthcare Ergonomics Technical Committee. Seems like the right time to be "joining the dots" internationally on HF/E x Healthcare.
