TMIT Patient Safety Documentaries
Texas Medical Institute of Technology, which has merged with the Quaid Foundation, has just released a powerful video documentary on patient safety “Chasing Zero: Winning the War on Healthcare Harm” that will be airing on the Discovery Channel. You can watch the video online as well. The video features interviews with both physician leaders in the patient safety movement and powerful stories told by laypersons, such as Sue Sheridan, who have become outstanding voices for patient safety after medical errors affecting their loved ones. You’ve heard us say many times that stories, not statistics, are what promote patient safety. This video is one that your Boards of Directors need to view as well as your staffs and communities.
