Instructions

The first step in your final project will be conducting a root cause analysis of a particular case study. In this journal assignment, discuss how would you articulate the major differences between a root cause analysis (RCA) and a Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA)? What questions stand out to you regarding the use or effectiveness of either tool? How do you think these tools would help you assess the culture of safety in a particular organization?
