welcome
Human factors are all the things that make us different from logical, completely predictable machines. How we think and relate to other people, equipment and our environment. In simple terms it’s the things that affect our personal performance.
The Clinical Human Factors Group’s (CHFG) vision is of a healthcare system that places an understanding of human factors at the heart of improving clinical, managerial and organisational practice leading to significant improvements in safety and efficiency. Our manifesto for change targets three areas:
Human factors education & training
Building “high reliability” organisations
Intelligent regulation and independent investigation
