مستخلص: Background Error detection and analysis alone cannot create or sustain a culture of safe, high-quality, compassionate care for patients. Some experts have endorsed a unit-based approach to improving quality, but there are few examples and those rarely focus on reducing all preventable harms and engaging frontline clinicians, patients, and families. Approach: We implemented a unit-based approach comprising seven building blocks for creating a comprehensive approach to detect and prevent harm at the unit level within a hospital: (1) unit quality council and stakeholder buy-in, (2) parent engagement and advisory council, (3) frontline clinician and parent quality improvement training, (4) measurement of organizational contextual factors, (5) electronic health record trigger development and synthesis of harm measures, (6) subcommittees to review harm, and (7) quality improvement teams. Challenges and Lessons Learned: Challenges include conceptualizing triggers for a unit unfamiliar with this methodology, establishing unit resources for collecting and analyzing data, and creating processes to integrate parents in unit quality efforts. The seven essential building blocks helped overcome these challenges and could be adopted by other healthcare organizations. Conclusion These building blocks create a generalizable foundation for establishing a unit-based approach to detecting and preventing harm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
