Remember the beginning of health care's safety movement? Many clinicians & health systems initially denied data that showed their patients had been harmed. Some became defensive and resistant to change. A similar thing is happening now with health equity...

”Allow patients and family members not only to have a voice, but to determine how they want to use that voice”--giving patients and families options to choose on how to use the voice makes this partnership even more outstanding. So proud of Armando Nahum’s contribution!

Ready for daylight savings? Remember, the one hour loss of sleep is associated with increased human error related patient safety issues as described in this Mayo Clinic study in JGIM Journal of General Internal Medicine: bit.ly/3MLjyos. Layers of safety precautions are needed to address fatigue.
