Welcome To My Patient Safety Blog!
The above statement was put out by the World Health Organization in 2020.
In order for the general public to align with efforts of health care organizations to keep us safe, we must take some responsibility by questioning and researching hospitals, day surgery facilities, physicians and medical insurance companies prior to scheduling an elective procedure.
In this day and age of available information at your fingertips it is our obligation to do the research and ask questions. As the consumer you have the right to know certain information about entities you hire to provide your health care.
In my next post I will provide more information and links to make your research efforts less intimidating.
If you don't look out for you, who do you trust to do so??
Do the research, you will feel more confident about your medical decisions, and you will thank me later.
Sincerely TQC
