Primum non nocere“ or „never harm“ is one of the oldest fundamental principles of medicine.
Especially hospitals are complex and high risk organisations and treatment errors were a tabu for a long time. But everybody even well trained health care professionals can make errors which can lead to a worse treatment outcome.
Since the high 5 initiative of the WHO, patient safety has become more important in all core processes.
In this lecture you will hear about strategies and ways to develop a safety culture in hospitals and how they learn from other buisness fields like aviation. You will hear about safety procedures like checklists, the correct patient identification, learning and reporting systems and special medical team trainings.
