The Handbook of Patient Safety will empower doctors, nurses and other professionals to be able to develop safe clinical processes that allow proactive management and minimisation of risk, so that people are not harmed when they receive clinical care. It gives the rationale for patient safety, the theories behind the science of patient safety and then the practical methods that frontline staff can use on a daily basis to decrease harm.

Rezension:
The clear build-up of the book helps with understanding the concepts and this approach really engages the reader. Some beautiful sentences inspire you to want to start changing things right away - my favourite was: 'Genuine ownership of safety at the front line begins with a core belief that all patients deserve to be free of harm'. [...] I enjoyed reading it and would certainly recommend it to clinicians eager to learn more about patient safety. Honkoop PJ., Patient safety for clinical practice. BMJ Quality & Safety
