NR544 Quality and Safety Core Elective

Week 3 Discussion

Medical Errors and Patient Safety

Welcome to the Collaboration Café. In specific weeks of the course, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with your classmates in the Collaboration Café for a graded assignment (50 points). The Collaboration Café is an interactive process between the students. Faculty involvement in the Café will be minimal, however, faculty will monitor this section for compliance and clarification. There are no scholarly references required in this discussion format. The idea is for you to share and learn from your classmates about real-life experiences. Pleaser refer to the guidelines and grading rubric below for more information on the Collboration Café.

Please watch the following video, Transparency, Compassion, and Truth in Medical Errors: Leilani Schweitzer at TEDxUniversityofNevada, (Links to an external site.) and address the following prompt:

As you look back over your career as a nurse or even as a nursing student, can you think of a time when you were either involved in or aware of an adverse medical error with a patient that compromised patient safety? What did you learn from this experience? What did the organization learn from this experience?

IMPORTANT NOTE: Your instructor will be monitoring the Collaboration Café but not participating as this is your opportunity to give and receive feedback from your peers. The Collaboration Café is graded this week (50 points). There are no scholarly references required in this discussion format. Please see the guidelines and grading rubric below.
