The SAVES set of categories was developed by Do No Harm users because other sets were not as functional for their purposes. People use the following categories for three reasons:

  • They encourage brainstorming. If you consider these categories and what people are doing, you will not leave out something important
  • They help to organize information and to identify relationships
  • They force disaggregation—if something fits in more than one, you can unpack it
