Patient Safety is essential for successful surgical care — in cardiothoracic surgery — and all disciplines. In the more than 10 years since the Institute of Medicine made patient safety a priority, little progress has been made in changing culture and practice on the front lines.
This two-day course — including team training and simulation experiences — will make a difference, offering surgical team members practical safety behaviors for improving patient outcomes.
