IHI Open School - Patient Safety Curriculum - From Error to Harm Institute for Healthcare Improvement
As long as humans are practicing health care, mistakes and harm will be part of our daily work. But how can you mitigate the mistakes you make? And why do we make errors in the first place? The suite of courses will introduce you to the fundamentals of patient safety, and explain why to err is human. You’ll dive into content about teamwork and communication, explore root cause analysis and the aftermath of adverse events, and discover the critical components comprising a culture of safety.
