“Never events“, “Sentinel events”, and “Near misses”. These terms strike fear in any healthcare provider! The National Quality Forum, the Agency for Healthcare Quality and Research, and the Joint Commission, all have stressed the importance of patient safety in the operating room and medical wards. In this podcast we will review alarming statistics regarding preventable medical errors, and remind ourselves of ways to keep patient safe.
