HRO Apparent Cause Analysis Workshop – 6/30

To be placed on a waitlist, please email CHA Education Services at EducationServices@chime.org.

This workshop is only open to CHA PSO Member Hospitals.

Press Ganey will train leaders in the execution of structured investigations of the precursor and near-miss events to link individual errors to system causes.

Apparent Cause Analysis (ACA) is a limited investigation of lesser harm events.  If conducted using a structured process using proximate cause statements that link individual errors to system causes, this type of analysis can be used for intermediate corrective actions.  ACA is also a valuable database contributor to periodic Common Cause Analyses that should be used to identify systemic common causes as well as special cause variations.

Target audience: Nurses, physicians, quality professionals, risk managers, frontline leaders, and others who respond to patient and employee safety events.

Apparent Cause Analysis Workshop will be held on Tuesday, June 30, 2026 from 9:00 a.m.—11:45 a.m.  Onsite Program at CHA in Wallingford.  

This workshop is limited to 50 participants.
