This volume on patient safety revolves around a central question:
How can the increased emphasis on patient safety among healthcare
managers be translated into better policy and reduced clinical
risk? The twelve contributions in this volume are divided between
four sections: theoretical perspectives on managing patient safety;
top management perspectives on patient safety; health information
technology perspectives on patient safety; and organizational
behavior and change perspectives on patient safety. The issue of
patient safety provides a fertile niche for management researchers
to test existing theories and develop new ones. For example, the
goal of reducing medical errors while maximizing patient health
requires not only an awareness of the tenets of evidence-based
medicine, but also the managerial theories of human relations,
organizational culture, organizational development, organizational
learning, organizational structure, quality improvement, and
systems thinking. Indeed, these and other managerial theories are
drawn upon and applied by the various contributors. Taken together,
the thirty-five authors of this volume demonstrate that the future
of patient safety requires healthcare professionals and managers
who can successfully engage in multi-faceted projects that are
socially and technically complex.
