"This book provides a dynamic and comprehensive interprofessional approach to building a culture of safety by using simulation across clinical and education spheres in healthcare. This is a comprehensive guide and resource for healthcare organizations, educators, and diverse interprofessional healthcare team members to use to improve patient safety efforts to adapt to the ever-changing, complex world of healthcare. Its practical application is pertinent in transforming the education and practice of medicine, nursing, and other health-related fields... Weighted Numerical Score: 99 - 5 Stars! Patricia West, MS, BSN Michigan State University College of Nursing Doody's Medical Reviews. [The authors] have brought together a core group of national leaders to produce what I think is a paradigm-busting book that will help to transform education at the graduate level in medicine, nursing, and all related fields. The book speaks expertly about the high fidelity of simulation training, the need for synthetic models, the adult learning theory behind the debrief is a manifesto about where we must go as an interprofessional team, caring for the patient of the future. From the Foreword, by David B. Nash, MD, MBA Dean, Jefferson School of Population Health Philadelphia, PA This groundbreaking book reflects the accomplishments of an internationally recognized leader of innovation regarding interprofessional clinical learning through simulation. Based on the North Shore-LIJ Health System corporate university experience, the book describes how this organization used simulation to successfully tackle the major interprofessional health issue of our time: patient safety. This health system created a transformative simulation center that involves nurses, doctors, and related health professionals whose work in clinical teams has resulted in measurable improvements in all aspects of clinical decision-making, critical thinking, teamwork, and communication skills toward the ultimate goal of improved patient safety. Key Features: Describes in detail a groundbreaking system of achieving patient safety that uses interprofessional clinical learning through simulation Detailed case studies using concrete methods and examples illustrate the application of theory to practice Presents simulations scalable to any size organization and for use by health care professionals in all specialties includes theoretical foundations and practical applications for teaching and learning Focuses on interprofessional cooperation and learning." -- Provided by publisher

"This book addresses selected violations of professional nursing conduct and practices that take place in shadows or on the margins of clinical practice--incidents that represent "dark" or "gray" areas of nursing. Chapters identify threats to patient and nurse well-being that are antithetical to nurses' principles; sensitize nurses and other stakeholders to gray and dark sides of nursing through case examples; and pose evidence-based solutions for eliminating, mitigating, and addressing examples representing the gray or dark side of nursing. The book encourages organizations to promote a culture of ethical responsibility for nursing practices"--

The aim of this unique book is to discuss the “nexus” or vital connection between nursing and prevention of harm to patients. The meaning of “nexus” is connection and connotes a most central or most important point in time or place. Now, is the most important time to highlight how nurses as leaders affect patient safety every minute of every day in the current nursing practice environment. The contemporary safety literature messages nursing adherence to principles of patient safety is required to achieve sustainable and safer healthcare systems; meaning nurses should detect and prevent errors. This message is not helpful to nurses as they strive to lead, understand what patient safety is and how to implement safety strategies in the practice environment. The book will address this gap by providing nurses an understanding of patient safety and application of its concepts to clinical nursing practice. The book is structured as four parts: Part I provides foundations of patient safety; Part II describes nursing’s role in patient safety; Part III illustrates patient safety at the frontline; and Part IV explains resilience, healing and moving forward. Practical case study examples with implementation strategies (how to) will be provided that highlight key safety practices inherent to nursing that prevent patient harm including effective monitoring, leadership, communication, identification of near misses, and learning from error along with cultural and organizational factors that promote and maintain safety activities by nursing. Nurses produce safety by providing a strong layer of defence between error and patient harm. The discipline of nursing is the cornerstone of safety in the complex place of healthcare. The intended audience is front line nursing staff; nurse leaders; nurses working in quality, patient safety and risk management; advance practice nurses and nurse educators. The professional nurse who reads this book will read with the desire to learn more about the connection of nursing, nursing practice and patient safety.

Patient safety is a basic patient right as well as a duty for medical providers. Preventive measures in diagnostic, therapeutic, and nursing care are diverse and must be adapted to each situation. For the first time, the book presents an up-to-date and interdisciplinary view on patient safety and clinical risk management for ambulatory and inpatient care organized according to the WHO "Patient Safety Curriculum Guide." Patienten im stationären und ambulanten Gesundheitswesen erwarten eine interprofessionell organisierte Versorgung in Diagnostik, Therapie und Pflege, die sich am aktuellen Stand von Wissenschaft und Forschung orientiert. Diese Versorgung muss frei von vermeidbaren Risiken und Gefahren erfolgen. Das Buch gibt einen umfassenden Überblick über Möglichkeiten, Forschungsergebnisse und anwendbare Präventionsmaßnahmen für Klinik und Praxis aus interprofessionell klinischer, psychologischer, betriebswirtschaftlicher, technischer sowie juristischer Perspektive. Es orientiert sich dabei am Curriculum der WHO und empfiehlt sich damit als Lehrbuch zum Thema Patientensicherheitsmanagement. Der Leser erhält anhand von interdisziplinärenTheorie- und Denkansätzen, Anwendungsbeispielen, Checklisten und anderen Instrumenten Hilfestellung bei der Implementierung von Patientensicherheitsstrategien in den Versorgungsalltag. Ein Autorenteam von über 60 ausgewiesenen Experten hat an diesem Buch mitgewirkt.
