How often should we conduct Safety Briefings on a nursing unit or in a department?
The frequency should vary depending on the size of the unit or department. On large, busy units, where the staff and patients change often, Safety Briefings should be daily. However, on a small unit where the staff on duty or the patients may not vary much, weekly may work better. Talk with the staff and get their input as to a frequency for Briefings that is useful.
