A mixed-methods evaluation of the MORE^OB program in Ontario hospitals: participant knowledge, organizational culture, and experiences.

ABSTRACT:

Background

MORE^OB (Managing Obstetrical Risk Efficiently) is a patient safety program for health care providers and administrators in hospital obstetric units. MORE^OB has been implemented widely in Canada and gradually spread to the United States. The main goal of MORE^OB is to build a patient safety culture and improve clinical outcomes. In 2013, 26 Ontario hospitals voluntarily accepted provincial funding to participate in MORE^OB. The purpose of our study was to assess the effect of MORE^OB on participant knowledge, organizational culture, and experiences implementing and participating in the program at these 26 Ontario hospitals.

Methods

A convergent parallel mixed-methods study in Ontario, Canada, with MORE^OB
