SCCM Resource Library-When Technology Fails

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The speaker discusses the need for plans and standards in telecritical care to mitigate potential harm to patients. They highlight the lack of literature and standards in this area, particularly regarding fallback procedures when the system fails. The speaker provides real-world scenarios, such as weather events and protests, to demonstrate the importance of having plans and time to implement them. They also mention the current minimal standards set by the American Telemedicine Association and the lack of US government standards. The speaker suggests using failure mode and effects analysis as a tool to identify and mitigate potential system failures. They argue for the need to standardize and potentially accredit telecritical care programs to ensure compliance and improve patient safety.
