Using IF-THEN Plans to Support Patients in Raising Safety Concerns About Their Care

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Patient Safety Concerns

In brief

The aim of the present research is to test the effectiveness of an implementation intention-based intervention for promoting the raising of safety concerns by patients in healthcare settings. Each participant will be randomly allocated to one of two conditions: (1) a control condition, and (2) an intervention condition, in which participants form multiple implementation intentions (i.e. "if-then" plans) using a structured online interface. The main outcome measure will be the frequency with which participants report raising safety concerns in healthcare settings over a 12-month follow-up period.
