Chances are you know of a patient who has been seriously harmed while being cared for at your unit, clinic, or hospital. Chances are almost as high that you, a family member, a friend, or a neighbor can relate a story of a mistake, a miscommunication, a slip, or an accident at a pharmacy, the doctor's office, a hospital, or a surgery center. This course is designed to provide you with the background and tools needed to make your workplace and site the safest place in America to be a patient.
