Recognising Risk and Improving Patient Safety: Mildred’s Story

Synopsis
MILDRED’S STORY was produced to form part of a ‘Recognising Risk and Improving Patient Safety’ course. The course takes a novel approach to educating healthcare professionals about the importance of non-clinical skills, behaviour and attitudes in assuring patient safety.

It draws upon the experiences of patients within healthcare settings, and knowledge gained from other high-risk industries, to develop a strategy enabling healthcare workers to critically appraise and intervene in the development of patient risk.

MILDRED’S STORY has been reconstructed from the actual experiences of a number of patients. [25 minutes]
