Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Non-technical skills

Teamwork The work of the team consists of information exchange and coordination of all activities performed. In-team communication is always calm and assertive, and team members support each other. Task management With the right planning and preparation of individual activities, the likelihood that all standards of care and best practices will be followed increases. Situational awareness Situational awareness refers primarily to the collection of information, its understanding and, on that basis, prediction of direction into which the situation will develop. Maintaining situational awareness is crucial in order to move towards the right goal. Decision-making With good situational awareness, one is able to keep in mind all information needed to make the correct decision at the right time. In some cases, it is advisable to consult with other team members or to verify their consent to the proposed procedure. Communication Communication is a vital tool when working in a team.
