Definition
A facilitated reflection held while the system is still in a warning band to examine how maintenance load, emotional labor, and unresolved incidents are accumulating. Care retrospectives combine telemetry with frontline testimony.
They redistribute responsibilities before burnout or harm escalates, triggering new maintenance windows or policy fixes when the team cannot keep absorbing risk.
