A large part of the hunt for safety within the healthcare domain seems to be about hunting errors and trying to develop barriers to prevent similar errors in the future, learning from errors. People are seen as the liability and they should try harder to be safe. This study focuses on trying to understand how nurses create safety within the work instead of looking at the errors produced, learning from creating safety. With more descriptions of how nurses recover or step back from danger we are able to provide nurses on all levels from undergraduates to experts with important information on how safety is created on the sharp end and therefore enhance patient safety. The benefit of looking at things that go right rather than looking at errors is that the frequency of things that goes right is significantly higher. Resilience engineering, this study’s backbone, is aiming to increase the number of events that go right rather than reducing the things that go wrong.
