Approximately 100,000 patients die in the U.S. every year as a result of medical mistakes, and some of the behavior that goes on in the U.S. healthcare system, as described in the book, is appalling. 'Health care needs... a radical cultural transformation, like the one that has taken place in aviation over the past 30 years,' the authors argue persuasively. Three positive case studies show that it can be done.\u003c\/p\u003e - Jan W. Steenblik (Air Line Pilot) \u003cp\u003eThis book is full of information from air investigations and interesting facts. The first flight attendants, for example, had to be registered nurses in case any passengers became unwell. It shows that the everyday implementation of such things as checklists is part of a commitment by an industry to change the way it works. This commitment comes through leadership, but involves all the team, and is key for a nursing audience.\u003c\/p\u003e - Dan Wolstenholme (Nursing Standard)\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe U.S. healthcare system is now spending many millions of dollars to improve \"patient safety\" and \"inter-professional practice.\"\u003c\/b\u003e Nevertheless, an estimated 100,000 patients still succumb to preventable medical errors or infections every year. How can health care providers reduce the terrible financial and human toll of medical errors and injuries that harm rather than heal? Beyond the Checklist argues that lives could be saved and patient care enhanced by adapting the relevant lessons of aviation safety and teamwork. In response to a series of human-error caused crashes, the airline industry developed the system of job training and information sharing known as Crew Resource Management (CRM). Under the new industry-wide system of CRM, pilots, flight attendants, and ground crews now communicate and cooperate in ways that have greatly reduced the hazards of commercial air travel.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe coauthors of this book sought out the aviation professionals who made this transformation possible. Beyond the Checklist gives us an inside look at CRM training and shows how airline staff interaction that once suffered from the same dysfunction that too often undermines real teamwork in health care today has dramatically improved. Drawing on the experience of doctors, nurses, medical educators, and administrators, Beyond the Checklist demonstrates how CRM can be adapted, more widely and effectively, to health care delivery. The authors provide case studies of three institutions that have successfully incorporated CRM-like principles into the fabric of their clinical culture by embracing practices that promote common patient safety knowledge and skills.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe coauthors infuse this study with their own diverse experience and collaborative spirit: Patrick Mendenhall is a commercial airline pilot who teaches CRM; Suzanne Gordon is a nationally known health care journalist, training consultant, and speaker on issues related to nursing; and Bonnie Blair O'Connor is an ethnographer and medical educator who has spent more than two decades observing medical training and teamwork from the inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword by Captain Chesley \"Sully\" Sullenberger\u003c\/i\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e 1 History of Crew Resource Management\u003cbr\u003e 2 Communication\u003cbr\u003e 3 \u003ci\u003eCase Study: \u003c\/i\u003eMaimonides Medical Center\u003cbr\u003e 4 Team Building\u003cbr\u003e 5 Case Study: Osher Clinical Center for Complementary and Integrative Medical Therapies\u003cbr\u003e 6 Workload Management\u003cbr\u003e 7 \u003ci\u003eCase Study\u003c\/i\u003e: Interprofessional Education and Practice at the University of Toronto\u003cbr\u003e 8 Threat and Error Management\u003cbr\u003e 9 Why CRM Worked\u003cbr\u003e 10 The Problems in Medicine\u003cbr\u003e 11 Conclusion\u003ci\u003eAppendix: \u003c\/i\u003eMaimonides Medical Center Code of Mutual Respect\u003ci\u003eGlossary\u003cbr\u003e Notes\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"ILR Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52541698113816,"sku":"9780801451607","price":80.57,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/beyond-the-checklist-what-else-health-care-can-learn-from-aviation-teamwork-and-safety-hardback-9780801451607","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
