Incident Management Review and Processes- making sure we do what we say we do (review of Policy, Process, Practice).

JE Jason Emmins Public Seen by 42

We have experienced some critical incidents recently that have highlighted a need to review our internal Incident Management Process (Policy, Procedure, Practice, training etc)- this is one of the requirements of our registration and also operating a good/ethical business.

There is one particular incident I would like to review with the assistance of the group (either Risk Jedi or other interested parties). This incident occurred almost 12 months ago and potentially has large/significant consequences (organisationally as it was classified as a Reportable Incident with the NDIS QS Commission and not responded to appropriately/within timeframes). I will go into further detail in the discussion.

Please respond in the thread below if you are interested in reviewing this with me- I will send a further individual email to the group once confirmed. I would like to have this done within the next 2 weeks (to also pre-empt any further investigation or action by the NDIS QS Commission). I would expect to dedicate 2-3 hours of reviewing the Incident, Policy/Process, Practice Standards, Gaps, Opportunities, and possible consequences.

Questions please -

note is made to Jeder Incident Register - no link that i could see

Under Definitions - Accident - illness to vehicles - does this mean accident, typo ?

Otherwise understand

Thanks @Lisa Zulfiqar . well spotted. @Michelle Dunscombe I'm not sure how we want to manage our document edits. Can we please organise for the edit to the master copy? Is there anything I can do? Thanks :)

@Lisa Zulfiqar I'm not sure what you mean as when I look it says damage to vehicles. I'm not sure if someone has edited it already.

@Michelle Dunscombe unsure maybe it has been amended

Read and understood, Thanks Aleks. In the same paragraph as Lisa mentioned Alarm /harm looks like a typo as well.

Read and understood. Apologies that I did respond sooner. I read the original post and as I could not participate in the review I did not read any further.

Really like this "Tell someone where / when you are going especially if high risk ) long drive, new client, isolated property or pair up, ask for support).", never read this before in a Incident and Injury Reporting Policy and Procedure, thanks @Aleks Jovanovic

Late to the party, first day with access to Loomio today... Read and understood the policy - I went and read it on G-Drive to make sure I was reading the latest edit. There is a typo as Lisa commented earlier, in the Definitions: Incidents "illness to vehicles" (It's correct in the next definition - Accidents). Assume it should be "damage to vehicles, property..." I also really like the sentence Mark referred to above, "Tell someone where..." Noted that the brackets are confusing in that sentence though, if the doc is to be edited soon (sorry, I can't help it - proof-reading habit).

I'm SO GLAD to have another proof reader on board! Yay!

Hi Renee, thanks for picking up on those errors 🙂. Much appreciated. @Dee Brooks Once the policies are finalised and active, who would be the best person to keep the policies up to date. I know that this is yet another 'thing to do' .It would be great to get some clarity on roles and responsibilities relating to policy management. I feel that if there are too many policy writers involved, that we may end up with an inconsistent range of styles, formatting and structure.

I think this will all eventually fall under the Document Jedlet in the Membership Jedi and be co-managed by that Jedi and Admin (Pod)!
