DESCRIPTION:In healthcare\, patient safety has received substantial attent
 ion and\, in turn\, some safety approaches have been adopted from other hi
 gh-risk industries. One of these has been the use of risk assessment\, pre
 dominantly by using risk matrices. However\, whilst other industries have 
 criticised the design and use of these risk matrices\, the applicability o
 f such criticism has not been investigated formally in healthcare.\n\nThis
  talk will focus on the currently used risk matrices in acute trusts in NH
 S England\, and then discuss the applicability of criticisms of risk matri
 ces from outside healthcare. Lastly\, a number of recommendations will be 
 given for their current use.\n
