The guidance in this handbook is not meant to be prescriptive. Instead, it is meant to be general enough, and contain a sufficient diversity of examples, to enable the reader to adapt the methods as needed to the particular risk management issues that he or she faces.
The handbook highlights major issues to consider when managing programs and projects in the presence of potentially significant uncertainty, so that the user is better able to recognize and avoid pitfalls that might otherwise be experienced.

This is due to the complex and constantly changing environment in which clinical and social care is delivered and the inherent vulnerabilities of patients and service users to have incidents cause harm.
Although most focus tends to be on risks associated with direct service user treatment or care and the consequences therein other important issues include but are not confined to: Appropriate transfer of service users between departments and to other facilities. Confidentiality and the appropriate release of service user information. Service user consent issues. Discharge arrangements either from facilities or services.
Service user participation in research studies. Protection of service users from abuse, neglect or assault. Medications management. It is essential that the HSE seeks to promote staff wellbeing and that every effort is made to ensure that the work environment contributes to the health, safety and welfare of the staff member.
Important issues include but are not confined to ensuring: The safety of the work environment. The safety of systems of work. That occupational health problems are prevented or addressed. The safety of equipment and other technologies. The appropriate training of staff. That a system of risk assessment is in place to identify and manage key risks relating to staff and the public.
That staff are supported in issues that affect their ability to function effectively in the workplace. It achieves this by positively influencing health service delivery and outcomes through strategy and policy.
Keeping the public safe is also an issue in relation to the environmental safety of the HSE s services. In order to enhance the quality of the service user experience of the services, we must consider the degree to which services are service user centered which means focusing less on managing institutions and more on the process of care. Given that risk management by definition is focused on managing those things that threaten the achievement of objectives, it is essential that the risk management process is integral to managing achievement of objectives or the outcomes of projects.
A robust system of risk assessment as part of the project management cycle is essential if projects are to be successfully delivered on time and in budget. This process should include the ongoing identification of risks arising due to unintended or unanticipated consequences. The HSE has significant property assets which must be protected from loss against fire, floods and other risks. In addition information management systems such as ICT and manual records, including clinical, financial and business which are essential for the ongoing operations of the HSE must be protected from damage and destruction and loss.
Services should have in place contingency plans for the most common business continuity risks that they are likely to experience. The most common definition of risk is anything that could threaten your ability to meet your objectives, these may be personal, departmental, project or organisational objectives. The reputation of individual services and the HSE is essential in managing risks in terms of the service user, professional and organisation.
The management of reputation leads to increased confidence and trust in services and has consequent effects on the consumer satisfaction, recruitment and retention of staff and increased public confidence. The CEO is the Accounting Officer of the HSE and must also supply the Board with information including financial information relating to the performance of his functions as the Board may require. The System of Internal Financial Control is designed to reduce rather than eliminate risk.
Such a system can provide only a reasonable and not an absolute assurance that the assets are safeguarded, transactions authorised and properly recorded and that material errors or irregularities are either prevented or would be detected in a timely manner. Where no other treatment options are available or appropriate opportunities to transfer unacceptable risks through policies for insurance and other methods must be understood and acted upon. Such action is necessary to adequately protect the assets of the HSE.
The risk management process provides a method for making financial decisions with uncertain outcomes, for seeking financial benefits and for minimising financial losses. For example, it is important to invest wisely to take opportunities of new technology but it is also important to manage the consequent risks of that funding perhaps not being then available for other services or the future costs of the ongoing operation and maintenance of that technology.
It is important to note that though finance is identified as a separate category of risk it is also important to note that most risk if realised will have a financial impact on the HSE. The management of environmental risk is essential in terms of those that access the services of those that work within the HSE. It is also essential in terms of public accountability that the HSE contributes to protection of the environment by ensuring that the systems and processes are in place to ensure that the HSE complies with any relevant regulatory duties.
