Zero Harm Starts Here.
Intelligent Safety Management.
HIITS Patient Safety & Risk Management Platform gives hospitals the tools to report incidents, investigate root causes, manage risk registers, and build a Just Culture — all in one integrated system.
Every Tool Your Safety Team Needs
From first report to closed loop — HIITS covers the full patient safety lifecycle.
Intelligent Incident Reporting
Streamlined, mobile-friendly incident capture with automated classification, severity scoring, and automatic routing to the right team — reducing reporting time by up to 70%.
Risk Register & FMEA
Dynamic risk register with Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) scoring, risk heat maps, and automated escalation pathways for high-priority risks.
Just Culture Framework
Built-in Just Culture decision support tools that help leaders distinguish between human error, at-risk behavior, and reckless behavior — promoting psychological safety.
Sentinel Event Management
Dedicated sentinel event workflows with mandatory reporting triggers, investigation timelines, and regulatory submission support for JCI and CBAHI requirements.
Safety Culture Surveys
Validated AHRQ-based safety culture surveys with department-level benchmarking, trend analysis, and actionable improvement recommendations.
Industry-Standard Investigation Tools, Built In.
HIITS equips safety teams with the most trusted investigation and improvement methodologies used by leading healthcare systems worldwide — structured, guided, and fully integrated with the incident management workflow.
TapRoot® Methodology
Systematic root cause investigationThe globally recognized TapRoot® system guides investigators through a structured process to identify root causes and contributing factors — moving beyond surface-level findings to uncover the true systemic causes of incidents.
- SnapCharT® timeline-based event mapping
- Causal factor charting with evidence links
- Root Cause Tree® for systematic cause identification
- Corrective action helper with effectiveness tracking
SnapCharT®
Visual event & causal factor chartingBuild a clear, chronological picture of what happened before, during, and after an incident. SnapCharT® maps events, conditions, and causal factors on a visual timeline — making complex incident sequences easy to understand and communicate.
- Drag-and-drop timeline event builder
- Causal factor identification and tagging
- Evidence attachment at each event node
- Exportable charts for committee review
Process Map
Workflow analysis & gap identificationMap the clinical or operational process as it should work versus how it actually worked during the incident. Process mapping reveals deviations, missing steps, and design flaws that contributed to the event — and guides targeted improvement.
- As-designed vs. as-performed process comparison
- Step-level deviation flagging
- Barrier analysis integration
- Linked to corrective action plans
Learn from Defect
Structured learning & improvement cyclesTransform every defect, near miss, and adverse event into a structured learning opportunity. The Learn from Defect tool guides teams through a standardized improvement cycle — ensuring insights are captured, shared, and acted upon across the organization.
- Standardized defect analysis template
- Improvement action assignment and tracking
- Hospital-wide learning broadcast
- Trend analysis across defect categories
Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
Fishbone & causal factor investigationStructured root cause analysis using fishbone (Ishikawa) diagrams to systematically trace incidents back to their systemic causes across people, process, environment, and equipment — driving corrective actions that prevent recurrence.
- Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram builder
- Multi-category causal factor mapping
- Systemic contributing factor identification
- Corrective action linkage and tracking
Identify, Score & Mitigate Risk Before Harm Occurs.
HIITS embeds a structured, internationally aligned risk assessment framework into every stage of the safety workflow — from proactive risk identification to real-time heat map monitoring and escalation management.
Risk Register
Centralized, dynamic risk register capturing all identified risks across departments — with ownership assignment, due dates, and real-time status tracking.
- Department and enterprise-level risk views
- Risk owner assignment and accountability tracking
- Automated escalation on overdue mitigations
- Linked to incident reports and FMEA findings
FMEA (Failure Mode & Effects Analysis)
Proactive FMEA tool for analyzing clinical and operational processes before failures occur — scoring each failure mode by severity, occurrence, and detectability to prioritize improvement actions.
- RPN (Risk Priority Number) scoring engine
- Process step-level failure mode mapping
- Detectability and occurrence rating scales
- Action plan generation from high-RPN findings
Risk Heat Map
Live, interactive risk heat map visualizing the full risk landscape across the organization — color-coded by severity and likelihood, updated in real time as risks are assessed and mitigated.
- 5×5 likelihood-severity matrix visualization
- Drill-down from heat map cell to risk detail
- Trend view showing risk movement over time
- Exportable for board and accreditation reporting
Proactive Risk Identification
Structured tools for identifying risks before incidents occur — including safety rounds, near-miss analysis, and staff-submitted risk observations — feeding directly into the risk register.
- Digital safety round checklists
- Near-miss and good catch capture forms
- Staff risk observation submission portal
- AI-assisted risk pattern detection
Build a Culture Where Safety Thrives.
HIITS embeds Just Culture principles directly into the incident management workflow. Leaders receive structured guidance at every decision point — ensuring fair, consistent responses that encourage reporting without fear.
Psychological Safety
Anonymous and confidential reporting options that encourage staff to speak up without fear of blame.
Fair Accountability
Structured decision trees that distinguish system failures from individual behavior — every time.
Learning Culture
Closed-loop learning that turns every incident into a hospital-wide improvement opportunity.
