(2022) Checklists (1.5 hours)

Robert Sheffield, CHT and Kevin I. “Kip” Posey, CHT / January 2022

Introduction

The concept of a checklist is at the heart of a hyperbaric safety program. Of all the safety tools to minimize risk in our facilities, the checklist is probably the most obvious, simple, powerful, and underutilized tool. Although we use various forms of checklists in our daily lives, getting people to properly implement checklists in our hyperbaric facilities might be one of our greatest challenges.
