Nursing and Health Science: Reference Sources
Patient Safety and Quality: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nurses
Nurses play a vital role in improving the safety and
quality of
patient care—not only in the hospital or ambulatory
treatment
facility, but also of community-based care and the care
performed by family members. Nurses need know what proven
techniques and interventions they can use to enhance patient
outcomes. To address this need, the Agency for Healthcare
Research and Quality (AHRQ), with additional funding from the
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, has prepared this
comprehensive, 1,400-page, handbook for nurses on patient
safety and quality. |
