Abstract:
Objective To identify key safety hazards in the logistics department of a tertiary hospital in Nanjing,analyze their root causes,and implement targeted measures to reduce risk occurrence.Methods Hospital logistics hazard records were reviewed,and risk assessments were conducted.Root cause analysis(RCA)was used to identify proximal and root causes of risks,followed by corresponding countermeasures.Results Proximal causes of hazards included lack of knowledge/skills and imperfect operational procedures,while root causes involved inadequate risk management frameworks and limited inspection cate-gories.By clarifying management structures,optimizing inspection processes,and strengthening incentive mechanisms,the sam-ple hospital achieved significant increases in hazard detection and reductions in adverse events.Conclusion The study demon-strates that systematic safety inspections and hazard rectification mechanisms can effectively mitigate hospital logistics safety risks.
