Priority for HealthCare
Understanding Staff Safety Culture
There is no doubt that patient safety and quality care should be the priority for healthcare institutions. However the safety of healthcare staff, who are vital for delivering patient safety outcomes, should not be ignored. A culture of safety for both patients and staff is required within hospitals, clinics, and all healthcare spaces.
