Reactive Versus Proactive Struggles: Article Analysis
An article in the Journal of Nursing Law by Audra Stewart, Risk Management: The Reactive Versus Proactive Struggles discussed different ideas in preventing malpractice in medical facilities. When asked to discuss two of the major ideas in this article. I would begin with the need for the facility to use a proactive approach by preventing an injuries from occurring and leaving the facility liable. This can be achieved the facility investigating any previous adverse events, and thus identifying what action that lead up to the unfortunate event. Thereby, creating an education program ensures that, all staff members responded in a similar manner to a situation. Thus, preventing or reducing the amount of occurrences and increasing patient safety.
