Summary |
As healthcare becomes increasingly complex, and available resources stretched to the limit, managing risk has never been more important. The opportunities to be realised from effective risk management are potentially very significant.
Effective risk management protects assets, minimises financial losses, improves both the safety and quality of healthcare, and improves the health, safety and welfare of healthcare staff. In the NHS in England, this is reflected in the combination of the clinical governance and controls assurance agendas, where risk management is key to helping improve the NHS for the benefit of all who use and work in it.
This book is an essential publication for those interested in managing risk in healthcare. It provides very useful information on a range of relevant risk management issues, clearly and concisely. We commend it to you as key reference text on healthcare risk management.
