Plan de acción nacional para promover la seguridad del paciente

Un enfoque de sistemas totales para la seguridad

A pesar de los esfuerzos sustanciales realizados en los últimos 20 años, los daños evitables en la atención médica siguen siendo una preocupación importante en los Estados Unidos. Aunque se han identificado muchas mejores prácticas efectivas y basadas en evidencia relacionadas con la reducción de daños, rara vez se comparten a nivel nacional ni se implementan de manera efectiva en múltiples organizaciones.

Reducir los daños evitables requiere un esfuerzo concertado, persistente y coordinado de todas las partes interesadas y un enfoque sistémico total de la seguridad. La seguridad total de los sistemas requiere coordinación en muchos niveles, lo que a su vez requiere una colaboración sólida entre todas las partes interesadas.

Al aprovechar el conocimiento y las ideas de agencias federales influyentes, organizaciones líderes de atención médica, defensores de pacientes y familias y expertos respetados de la industria en un conjunto de recomendaciones viables y efectivas, el Plan de Acción Nacional proporciona una dirección clara para lograr avances significativos hacia una atención más segura y una reducción de los costos de salud. daño a lo largo de la continuidad de la atención .

Al planificar e invertir juntos, movilizar recursos juntos, aprender juntos y compartir lecciones aprendidas, podemos impulsar cambios significativos y avanzar en el objetivo de crear la atención médica más segura para los pacientes y quienes los cuidan.
