HLT313 Safety, Quality, and Interdisciplinary Approaches to care

Week 2 Discussion

DQ1 A formal risk management plan demonstrates a health care organization’s approach as well as support for risk management and, ultimately, patient safety. Access information from your own employer/organization or using the Internet to find an allied health care organization located in your city or region, and identify the goals and objectives, scope, and functions of an existing risk management plan. How does the plan “measure up” in terms of meeting ethical and legal responsibilities to stakeholders? How might you improve it? Explain.

You are required to use and cite a minimum of two references from the GCU Library to support your response.

DQ2 Using the GCU Library, locate and summarize an allied health malpractice or negligence case study. If possible, select your chosen field of study. What went wrong? What workplace safety, risk management, or quality improvement steps were involved? What could have been done differently? If you were in charge of making sure this type of event never occurred again, what steps would you implement into the risk management plan?
