Clinical informatics team members' perspectives on health information technology safety after experiential learning and safety process development: qualitative descriptive study.

Health information technology (HIT) can increase the safety of many processes, but it may also introduce new challenges. In this study, a researcher was embedded in a clinical informatics team to explore their longitudinal experience of incorporating safety and safety culture into their work. Individual outcomes included a sense of ownership of HIT safety, and team outcomes included improved safety culture and curiosity of errors instead of blaming the user.
