The primary role of the clinical risk manager is to function within a strong team-oriented environment to investigate patient safety events in order to determine why an event occurred and how it can be prevented from happening again. Patient safety events are reviewed and analyzed for trends, severity and potential reporting requirements per regulatory/accreditation standards. When appropriate, the clinical risk manager will facilitate a collaborative, systematic process to identify the root cause of an event and share all lessons learned. The clinical risk manager will also facilitate educational opportunities related to patient safety reporting for staff that are new to the organization or new to leadership roles. The clinical risk manager frequently collaborates with frontline staff and other key leaders in the organization including, but not limited to, senior leadership, physician directors of quality, departmental managers/directors, the Self-Insurance Program (SIP), Legal Services and the Quality and Patient Safety Department. The clinical risk manager routinely facilitates or is an active participant on numerous committees/teams related to quality/patient safety initiatives. The clinical risk manager utilizes strong analytical skills and attention to detail to help identify and understand hidden and complex risks.
