Throughout time, communities have adapted to changes in their environment and, in doing so, have addressed risksthat threaten the things they value. The need to adapt is considered more urgent now than ever, notably given thecurrent focus on climate risk. Typically, adaptation is presented as a solution to reduce such risks. This is particularlythe case for Landlocked Developing Countries and Smal

The field of child welfare could be considered one of the most complex social systems to work within. Whether punishing for errors or satisficing calls for accountability with firing employees and pointing to individuals as the root causes of bad outcomes, the current practice in child welfare is to utilize backward looking accountability. It is argued here that child welfare agencies would benefi

The objective presented in this thesis is to evaluate Fire Safety on Construction Products within the EU from the aspect of harmonisation. The variations in regulations between countries in the EU regarding Fire Safety may be an obstacle to the free trade of goods and services for Construction Products. The aim is to show to what degree the Building Codes are harmonised in respect to the use of Co

This report has arisen due to lack of fire protection in the upper secondary school Västerhöjdgymnasiet in Skövde, Sweden. The report analyzes demands on personal safety when evacuating the building based on applicable laws and regulations; no emphasis has been taken regarding economic losses. The goal is to achieve a satisfactory evacuation in case of fire. The chosen acceptance criterion is that

Objective: The purpose of this study was to describe procedural changes in hospital incident investigations and show the consequences of these changes over time. Methods: A two-stage method was used. First component of the study was a content analysis of 87 incident investigations conducted 1995-2014 by the regulatory authority after adverse events in a Swedish university hospital. Second compone

Popular Abstract in Swedish I högrisksystem såsom sjukvården är det frestande att härleda såväl framgång som motgång till enskilda individer. Vi prisar hjälten Dr. House för framgångssagor och vi drar syndabocken SOS-sköterskan inför domstol för att inte ha uppfattat allvaret i en specifik situation. Den enskildes professionalitet, erfarenhet och klokskap används som förklaringsmodeller för framgåThe main aim of the research is to explore different aspects of organisational resilience in escalating situations, with an investigation of both theoretical and practical implications. From the platform of an explorative approach, this study makes use of naturalistic research in the domain of health care and experimental simulation studies, in order to establish a broad theoretical framework vis-

Abstract in Undetermined In this study the distinction between complicated and complex is used to shed some light on compliance with best-practice guidelines. Data was gathered related to obstetric practice in labor wards and operating theatres at two Scandinavian hospitals, one of them being a university hospital, and in a training facility. The complexity of obstetrical intervention is analyzed

Over the past decade, flooding has been a great issue for several countries in Europe. With the movement of people and assets to flood prone areas, consequences due to flooding are increasing. Coping with this problem requires an effective response to flood risks. Therefore, this work has aimed to describe the emergency response to the 2013 flood incident in Suffolk, UK. This, in order to provide

Mountain communities are adapting their livelihoods to a complex combination of social, political and economic changes and associated risks. Despite recognition of adaption in response to multiple changes in sustainable livelihood and critical climate change literature, risks attributed to biophysical effects of climate change have increasingly assumed importance. Consequently, diversification is

Analyzes of the terrorist attack on Drottninggatan have begun to be published. The risk is now that the debate will be governed by the logic of hindsight, that politicians and the media will be on the stands, pointing out mistakes and demand responsibility. Such a climate jeopardizes in the long run the development of our ability to prevent terrorist attacks, write four security researchers.

This report is an analysis of the evacuation capabilities of COOP Forum Nyköping. COOP Forum is a 6800 square meter supermarket built in 1970. The building is fitted with a sprinkler system, but lacks an automatic detection system in the sales part of the building. Two likely scenarios were identified and then simulated in FDS 5. In case of a fire in the personnel department, the smoke quickly fil

Background: Patient safety gained public notoriety following the 1999 report of the Institute of Medicine: To Err is Human – Building a Safer Health System which summarized a culminated decades' worth of research that had so far been largely ignored. The aim of this study was to analyze the report's impact on patient safety research in anesthesiology.Methods: A bibliometric analysis was performed

This master’s thesis aims to investigate how pilotage contributes to maritime safety and if its criteria can be more risk-based in Sweden. The theory of Resilience Engineering was applied to maritime safety which has extended the concept further. Several aspects of how pilots contribute to maritime safety were identified within the literature and empirical studies. These aspects were the pilots

The performance of teams, with different levels of domain and crisis management experience, managing unexpected and escalating situations was observed using a mid-fidelity ship-bridge simulation and analysed by applying the central concepts of joint activity coordination as well as Woods’s theory building on data overload. The coordination strategies used by the teams were evaluated by applying coo

The thesis explores the migration experiences of Syrian refugees who arrived in Sweden and Denmark by crossing the Mediterranean Sea in small, precarious boats. It aims to illuminate how these refugees managed the risks they faced during their journey to Europe and the meanings they associated with these risks. The research focuses on the socio-cultural and individual contexts within which risk is

Gemensam debattartikel av företrädare för forskning, utbildning och samverkan på Campus Helsingborg om Lunds universitets betydelse för Helsingborgs utveckling. Publicerad i Helsingborgs Dagblad.

This study investigated the possibilities of identifying leading objective indicators of safety across shipping organisations. Leading objective indicators of safety are safety culture related metrics that are statistically correlated with safety performance data which enables a more proactive approach to safety management. The conclusion was that no indicators could be identified, at least no

There is widespread consensus that teamwork constitutes one of the key requirements in today’s multidisciplinary and highly complex system of delivering care. In recent years, increasing attention has been given to questions of how to define, teach, measure, and improve teamwork in healthcare. However, one cannot help but feel a certain disconnect between this ongoing trend in healthcare with an a
