ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study is to perform a prospective risk analysis for the interim emergency department (ED) walk-in entrance at Memorial Regional Medical Center (MRMC) using healthcare failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA). Through the application of HFMEA, the team will be able to identify potential failures and subsequent solutions for the interim process. The solutions will be translated into detailed action plans that will be applied prior to opening the entrance.
