Each year more people die in health care accidents than in road
accidents. Increasingly complex medical treatments and
overstretched health systems create more opportunities for things
to go wrong, and they do. Patient safety is now a major regulatory
issue around the world, and Australia has been at its leading edge.
Self-regulation by professional and industry groups is now widely
regarded as insufficient, and government is stepping in. In Patient
Safety First eading experts survey the governance of clinical care.
Framed within a theory of responsive regulation, core regulatory
approaches to patient safety are analysed for their effectiveness,
including information systems, corporate and public institution
governance models, the design of safe systems, the role of medical
boards, open disclosure and public inquiries. Patient Safety First
includes chapters by Bruce Barraclough, John Braithwaite, Stephen
Duckett and Ian Freckleton SC. It is essential reading for all
medical and legal professionals working in patient safety as well
as readers in public health, health policy and governance.
