SHARE – Centre for Resilience in Healthcare
Norway’s largest research group studying quality and safety in healthcare
Our partners
The UiS based research centre SHARE was established at The Faculty of Health Sciences in 2017. Together with our national partners at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology Gjøvik (NTNU Gjøvik) and Oslo University Hospital (OUS), the centre constitutes Norway’s largest research group studying quality and safety in healthcare.
About SHARE
The research centre will contribute to changing the understanding of quality and safety in today's healthcare services through the development and use of a framework for resilience that encompasses all levels of the healthcare services. The University of Stavanger manages the centre.
The Centre for Resilience in Healthcare (SHARE) is currently one of eight research centres at the University of Stavanger. SHARE’s strategic vision is to become an internationally recognized research centre by reforming the understanding of quality and safety in current healthcare systems using a new and comprehensive resilience in healthcare framework. To achieve this, the centre will develop and disseminate new knowledge on resilience at all levels of healthcare.
SHARE is a multidisciplinary research centre. About 70 researchers are affiliated with the centre, including nurses, medical doctors, psychologists, physiotherapists, occupational therapist, lawyers, sociologist, engineers, and safety scientists. The centre’s main pillar is the solid base of PhD scholars conducting research in areas such as interdisciplinary teamwork and competence, co-production and involvement, telecare, regulation, evaluation of improvement measures, and analysis of healthcare processes.
