Patient Safety and Health Worker Retention - Twin Crises

 August 23, 2022 

Online


Our nation faces an urgent need to address both highly prevalent patient safety events and the increasing numbers of health care professionals leaving the workforce. These two persistent and challenging problems preceded the pandemic but have worsened during the past two years; and they are not unrelated. With fewer and less experienced peers, frontline workers cannot maintain the same safety standards. They fear they will do harm, risk moral injury, and question their own ongoing participation in a system that is failing them and their patients. This webinar features a timely discussion among some of our nation’s pioneer leaders in health care safety research and policy: Helen Burstin, M.D., M.P.H., MACP, Chief Executive Officer at the Council of Medical Specialty Societies, Carolyn Clancy, M.D., MACP, Assistant Undersecretary for Health, DEAN, Department of Veterans Affairs, Nancy Foster, Vice President, Quality & Safety Policy Development at the American Hospital Association, Lisa Simpson, M.B., B.Ch., M.P.H., FAAP, president and CEO of AcademyHealth and moderator Karen Wolk Feinstein, Ph.D., President of the Jewish Healthcare Foundation and the Pittsburgh Regional Health Initiative. This webinar will explore the reasons underlying our unfinished agenda on patient safety and consider what real progress we can make in this unique moment.
