Description
How can we make healthcare processes safer and more consistent? How do we improve care outcomes for patients?
With a range of coaching tips, activities, scenarios, and reflective exercises, this book enables you to translate current research on patient safety into everyday good practice. It does so by increasing understanding of the key concepts and helping you to develop strategies to minimise the risk of patient harm.
It focuses on Human Factors to support understanding of the relationship between human behaviour and fallibility, and the design of systems and processes, environments, tools, tasks, and technology to improve patient safety.
It also reflects the WHO Patient Safety Curriculum. Patient Safety is an essential text for all healthcare professionals.
