How interesting to see this out as a proposed set of ratios. We in the medical legal field know how ratios affect outcomes, yet it can be very difficult to enforce them.

Did you know that up to 50% of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) cases go undiagnosed? Properly screening patients for DVT is crucial as a DVT can lead to life-threatening complications such as pulmonary embolism. By implementing thorough screening protocols, healthcare providers can recognize high risk patients and attempt to prevent DVTs, and thus preventing potentially fatal outcomes. Prioritizing patient safety through vigilant screening practices must be emphasized to both new and established nurses. If you're in need of a behind-the-scenes LNC or a nurse expert in Med/Surg or Critical Care, don't hesitate to reach out to me. Together, we can ensure comprehensive patient care and optimal legal outcomes. Let's make a difference in healthcare and law, one case at a time.

Paediatric prescriptions; I would like to hear from fellow clinicians especially paediatricians and pharmacists about prescribing practices in children which I strongly convinced that doses should be based on body weight and to be decided by the prescribing doctor. All professional bodies recommend that dose should be in gms, mg, mcg and SHOULD NOT be in mls or number of tablets. More so, in this day of age, with EHR and AI, and with weight and height are taken & documented in every visit, medication doses can be calculated automatically and more accurately than done by doctors. If this can be incorporated within EHR in every healthcare facility, then definitely will bring more patient safety and better quality of care to our patients especially for this more vulnerable age group. It would be nice to hear the views of colleagues on this subject? #rcpch #mediclinic #childhealth #pharmacists #prescriping #quality

Can you solve this?

Are physician assistants (PAs) the future of healthcare? A growing number of patients are being seen by PAs instead of MDs. While there are over 1 million doctors in the U.S., the number of PAs is rapidly increasing, up 28% from 2018-2022. With a projected shortage of 48,000 primary care doctors by 2034, PAs will likely play an even bigger role in our care. But how do their education and training compare to MDs? And what does this mean for patients?

Medical errors are a serious problem in hospitals and can lead to patient deaths. Research has found that rude or disrespectful behavior among doctors, nurses, and hospital staff can make things dangerous. “A 10% increase in unit incivility was linked to a maximum 8.87% increase in healthcare-associated infection rates and a maximum 10.59% increase in mortality rates." When there is a lack of collaboration and teams are divided by gender, ethnicity, or position, it can lead to more medical errors and deaths. However, a culture of collaboration and better communication can improve patient outcomes. #WorkplaceCulture #Hospitals #Healthcare #patientsafety
