العنوان الفرعي للكتابHow To Get Better - Lessons Can Be Learned
وصف الكتابWhile most healthcare facilities have an extremely high success rate at the most challenging lifesaving work and we all know of friends and relatives who have had supreme care, mistakes are still made and patients' lives have been put at risk and lost. How often have we heard politicians say after some disastrous report, "Lessons must be learned", but what does this really mean. Will responsible parties carry out a careful cause and effect analysis and methodically get to the root causes of the problem? Will sufficient steps be taken to permanently eradicate those causes and provide a permanent solution so that the problem will not reoccur? This is what is done in the aviation industry with the result that air travel is very safe. The low accident rate is achieved by studying the causes and using the methods of continuous improvement explained in this book. These methods are now becoming better known in the medical profession have been recommended in recent reports but are perhaps misunderstood at operational levels. This book is a basic level manual for those who have never been involved in any form of quality improvement project and is also suitable as a refresher for anyone wishing to familiarize themselves with the various techniques discussed. The aim of this book is to explain what continuous improvement is and why it's needed; explain how individual departments can explain how and why continuous improvement is important, and helps readers recognize quality control methods in their own workplace and understand how to contribute to existing continuous improvement activities. While many of the case studies and examples are from the NHS, the author includes similar examples from around the world.

Pam Dyson, freelance consultant, qualified accountant and Chartered Manager "As I highlighted in my 2008 report `High Quality Care for All' - Quality of Care must be a priority for all Healthcare Professionals in order to improve patient outcomes. This book emphasises the need for continuous quality improvement and gives readers a guide how to initiate making these improvements at work." Professor the Lord Darzi of Denham, OM, KBE, PC, FRS. "This book presents a practical and refreshing approach to patient safety and continuous improvement in patient care. It will help practitioners reflect on how they can remove the obstacles that sometimes prevent them from doing what they want to do: deliver high-quality and safe patient care. It has helpful tools and practical applications for individuals and teams to enable them to work together to review their services and to identify where root problems might exist." "I sincerely believe this book should be a compulsory read for all trainees across all professions." Monica Fletcher OBE, MSc, PGCE, BSc (Hons,) DipN, DipHV. "After 35 years working in general practice, in medical education and as a medical politician, I recognise the value of a system to enable doctors and practices to make improvements based on patient experience. This readable book shows how this can be achieved in a simple straightforward manner. Every medical practice should have a copy."
