Over the past decade or so, we have seen a multitude of improvement
programmes and projects to improve the safety of patient care in
healthcare. However, the full potential of these efforts and
especially those that seek to address an entire system has not yet
been reached. The current pandemic has made this more evident than
ever. We have tended to focus on problems in isolation, one harm at
a time, and our efforts have been simplistic and myopic. If we are
to save more lives and significantly reduce patient harm, we need
to adopt a holistic, systematic approach that extends across
cultural, technological, and procedural boundaries. Patient Safety
Now is about the fact that it is time to care for everyone impacted
by patient safety, how we need to take the time to care for
everyone in a meaningful way and how hospitals need to enable staff
time to care safely. This book builds on the author's two previous
books on patient safety. Rethinking Patient Safety talked about
ways in which we need to rethink patient safety in healthcare and
describes what we've learned over the last two decades.
Implementing Patient Safety talked about what we can do differently
and how we can use those lessons learned to improve the way we
implement patient safety initiatives and encourage a culture of
safety across a healthcare system. Patient Safety Now unites the
concepts, theories and ideas of the previous two books with updated
material and examples, including what has been learned by patient
safety specialists during a pandemic. Patient Safety Now provides
the reader with a unique view of patient safety that looks beyond
the traditional negative and retrospective approach to one that is
proactive and recognizes the impact of conditions, behaviours and
cultures that exist in healthcare on everyone. It is written not
only for healthcare professionals and patient safety personnel, but
for patients and their families who all want the same thing. Too
often when things go wrong, relationships quickly become
adversarial when in fact this can be avoided by recognizing that,
rather than being in separate camps, there are shared needs and
goals in relations to patient safety.
