What It Captures
The tool captures event context, possible contributing factors, factor classification, and safety lessons.
Important Boundary
The tool does not determine intent, assign liability, generate severity ratings, or make clinical conclusions about trauma impact.
Does this tool decide who is at fault?
No. The review is learning-oriented. It separates possible contributors and safety lessons without producing blame labels or culpability rankings.
Can uncertain information be recorded?
Yes. Entries can be described as possible contributors, and unknowns can remain visible without forcing unsupported conclusions.
Is there a client form?
No. There is no separate client task. If client perspective is available elsewhere, it can be recorded as reported information.
Are completed reviews useful later?
Yes. Completed reviews persist as learning snapshots for future quality-improvement reference.
