It does so by increasing understanding of the key concepts and helping you to develop strategies to minimise the risk of patient harm.
It focuses on Human Factors to support understanding of the relationship between human behaviour and fallibility, and the design of systems and processes, environments, tools, tasks, and technology to improve patient safety.
It also reflects the WHO Patient Safety Curriculum. Patient Safety is an essential text for all healthcare professionals.
