As the primary caregivers in hospitals, nurses are well positioned to improve patient safety and reduce risk. This position gives nurses the needed insight to not only identify problems in healthcare systems, but also to be part of patient safety solutions. ASHRM collaborated with the American Organization of Nurse Executives (AONL) to write the Healthcare Risk Management Pearls for Nurses.
Topics covered in Part I include:
·         Just Culture and methods to treat the second victim of an adverse event
·         Solutions for preventing adverse events in high risk areas of the hospital including the Obstetrics and Emergency departments and Perioperative services
·         Strategies for preventing, detecting and correcting serious safety events
