Patient safety self-paced learning opportunities:
Joint Patient Safety Reporting
As a patient safety professional, one of your primary responsibilities is working with the Joint Patient Safety Reporting, or JPSR, system. The Joint Patient Safety Reporting Community provides a number of helpful resources, including a collection of brief training videos accessible in the Joint Knowledge Online portal. The videos in the JPSR Video Knowledge Base demonstrate the following JPSR functionalities:
- How to Enter a Patient Safety Event.
- Investigation Form.
- Searching.
- Reporting.
- Hotspots.
A video knowledgebase completion checklist is also available. A link to this document is available above the first video link and in the “Resources” section below the videos.
Follow the below instructions to access the JPSR Video Knowledge Base.
1. Log into the JKO website.
- CAC/VA PIV users should click on the “Create or Login with CAC” link.
