Description
"Physician and author Danielle Ofri investigates how medical error could be killing 10% of patients and causing 33% of hospital deaths. A clinical professor of medicine and practicing physician uses current research, interviews with medical staff and her own experience to explore the causes of medical error and advocates for concrete safety interventions and cultural shifts to reduce errors in the future. These stories ask us to reconsider what happens when the medical system does us harm"--,Provided by publisher.
