Discussion Topic 1: Policy Implications of Patient Safety Standards and Practices

Read the case study number one, Moving to a Common Core Interprofessional Patient Safety Curriculum on page 254 in Health Policy and Politics: A Nurse’s Guide, by Milstead. Why is it important that health professionals share a common understanding of patient safety standards and practices? What are the policy implications from accepting that “mistakes are normal and all human err”? How would you approach health care systems leaders or employers about changing employment policies related to punitive actions when errors occur?

Current Health professionals education rarely delivers common core content about the science and application of safety principles.

There were three themes used 1. Errors can and do happen: It is heat breaking that most of these errors were preventable and happened because of lapses at many different levels. 2. Mistakes are normal: Recognize that its important to be vigilant and proactive on an individual level, and improve systems on an organizational level. 3. Preventing errors is the responsibility of both individuals and teams: Recognize the needs to speak up on an individual level and work together with other health professions to provide safe patient care. Communication is key and check our attitude at the door, speak up and advocate for our patients when we have concerns about care, You never want get lost in the technical details and forget that I’m helping a real person.
