Our experts lead a discussion on creating a just culture and the role of incorporating lived experience expertise in the transformation of organizational culture in this Getting Further with Zero Suicide: Just Culture & Lived Experience webinar.
Session on Just Culture & Lived Experience
The Getting Further with Zero Suicide: Just Culture & Lived Experience webinar will explore the pursuit of a just and restorative culture of safety and the critical role that lived experience plays in the creation of such a culture.
Successful implementation of the Zero Suicide framework is rooted in the system-wide transformation of organization and workforce culture. Practice change toward suicide safer care requires the foundation of a tenacious pursuit of zero suicides as the only acceptable goal, a belief that suicide is preventable and that change can only occur in a just and learning culture.
A just, restorative, safety-oriented, and highly-reliable organization designs for zero and embraces a culture of safety where every staff member is engaged in the identification of errors and is supported in the aftermath of critical incidents. Though adverse events may still occur, a learning organization that sees suicide as a never-event, will derive lessons learned and build new practice opportunities through a process of continuous quality improvement.
