Effectiveness of Capacity Building Training Risk Management from Work of Buri Ram Hospital Personnel

Abstract

Background: An assessment of the risks from working for Buri Ram Hospital personnel in the fiscal year 2020 found that the health threat of personnel that affects the work the most is air quality. The second is social psychology and the third is ergonomics. The Occupational Health, Safety, and Environment Agency conduct annual risk assessments. According to the annual assessment, the number of people affected by the threat has decreased. But the researcher wants to develop the work and find ways to operate in the status of the hospital. Therefore, we have organized training to develop the potential of safety officers in the unit of Buri Ram Hospital personnel.
Objective: To compare 1) knowledge 2) risks of health threats in hospitals in 7 aspects 3) health threats by occupational hygiene tools and 4) assess satisfaction before and after training to develop the potential of safety officers of Buri Ram Hospital personnel.
Methods: This research is pre-experimental research. The sample group total of 100 people of Buri Ram Hospital personnel that attended the training to develop the potential of safety officers in the institution of Buri RamHospital.The sample size was determined from the Program, which was calculated for the sample by using the formula Two dependent means of App N4 Studies. The used tools were 1) questionnaire divided into 5 parts 2) form RAH.01 3) form RAH.02. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, i.e. number, percentage, mean and standard deviation, and inferential statistics such as Dependent or Paired samples t-test
Results: The training develops the potential of safety officers of Buri Ram Hospital personnel. The sample group had a statistically significant increase in occupational risk management knowledge. After training, the risk of 7 health threats, The average sound level, the average heat temperature measured by occupational hygienic instruments was statistically reduced. Average light intensity as measured by occupational hygienic instruments was statistically increased, and the satisfaction of the participants was at a high level.
Conclusion: The training develops the potential of safety officers of Buri Ram Hospital personnel increased risk management knowledge for safety officers in the institution. Personnel can better manage the risks of 7 health threats. The results of the assessment and control of the health hazards associated with light, noise, and thermal work have decreased.
