The vast majority of healthcare is provided safely and effectively.
However, just like any high-risk industry, things can and do go
wrong. There is a world of advice about how to keep people safe but
this delivers little in terms of changed practice. Written by a
leading expert in the field with over two decades of experience,
Rethinking Patient Safety provides readers with a critical
reflection upon what it might take to narrow the implementation gap
between the evidence base about patient safety and actual practice.
This book provides important examples for the many professionals
who work in patient safety but are struggling to narrow the gap and
make a difference in their current situation. It provides insights
on practical actions that can be immediately implemented to improve
the safety of patient care in healthcare and provides readers with
a different way of thinking in terms of changing behavior and
practices as well as processes and systems. Suzette Woodward shares
lessons from the science of implementation, campaigning and social
movement methods and offers the reader the story of a discovery.
Her team has explored an approach which could profoundly affect the
safety culture in healthcare; a methodology to help people talk to
each other and their patients and to listen through facilitated
safety conversations. This is their story.
