Traditional sentinel event reporting misses 70% of patient safety concerns. Staff fear retaliation, so near-misses go unreported until they become reviewable sentinel events. PulseFeed gives you anonymous reporting that captures risks before Joint Commission reviews—while meeting all HIPAA and Joint Commission standards.
Official reporting channels capture only the tip of the patient safety iceberg
Staff see near-misses, medication errors, falls, equipment failures—but fear retaliation. Official channels capture 2-3 reports/month in 500-bed hospital.
Heinrich's pyramid: 300 near-misses precede 1 major injury. You need those 300 signals. Current systems only catch the 1 catastrophic event.
Joint Commission reviews happen AFTER sentinel events. You need early warning systems to prevent sentinel events before they occur.
Capture the near-misses and early warning signals that prevent sentinel events
Staff won't report safety concerns if they fear disciplinary action or retaliation. PulseFeed provides true anonymity—no IP tracking, no metadata collection, no way to identify reporters. Result: 10-15x more safety reports than traditional systems.
PulseFeed's AI analyzes all safety reports for sentinel event risk patterns: medication errors, falls, wrong-site surgery, suicide, delay in treatment. Get instant alerts when high-risk keywords appear or patterns emerge.
When sentinel events occur, Joint Commission requires comprehensive root cause analysis (RCA). PulseFeed's historical data provides the context you need: Were there prior warnings? How many near-misses preceded this event? Did staff report concerns that were ignored?
"Leaders create and maintain a culture of safety throughout the hospital." PulseFeed provides the anonymous reporting mechanism required.
"Collect data to monitor performance." Captures near-misses and safety concerns beyond traditional event reporting.
Documents proactive safety monitoring to demonstrate culture of continuous improvement before sentinel events occur.
Historical trend data supports thorough root cause analysis when sentinel events require comprehensive review.
